Available to purchase, I dunno. With older HP laptops I had no success 
with 5.2, but 4.10 was fine. I haven't tried 5.3 yet.

When I say "no success", I meant that the laptop refused to complete the 
boot of an installation CD. If you can get to a shop, take an install CD 
along with you. If you can boot up and get as far as the main menu, 
it'll probably be just fine.
