Search for the Perfect Linux

What next

Now I have a list of Linux distros that will work with my laptops wifi what am I after?

I want something which can access the BBC iplayer, my SMB network storage and play a DVD.

Bonus points for playing any other catch up services.

Search for a Linux wot works

Distrowatch is both a website and podcast about whats new and sexy in the world of Linux

Well after the surprise of Pardus I thought lets slowly go thru each distro on its top 100 list

The idea is to come up with something that can cope with iplayer, hopefully legitimately on my previously used Dell inspiron 1520

Here is a spreadsheet to show how far I got...(blue ones are where the wifi works)
