Linux able to be on laptops have already been done a long time ago. There is nothing special about this news!!! I have a laptop with AMD 64-bit processor and it has had Linux put on it. Also I have a friend with an old pentium 1 laptop that has linux on it. I also know of many other laptops of friends and people who put linux on them. So this news is nothing of special.
I have a suggestion, but it would take a lot of work. They should just make all sites not allowed to send information to computers. If you need certain plugins to see the site then you have to go to the site and download it yourself and install it. But nothing can be send to computers from websites unless the user is downloading the program or file. That way any problems will be because the user downloaded the file and ran it. Also the blame if spyware or virus on the file will be the person they downloaded it from. That should fix a lot of problems. Who cares if it makes sites not load so fast but a lot of people have bandwidth so that does not matter much, and people with Dial-up oh well if they are paying for dial-up they should just get rid of it and go for broadband. I think Dial-up should only be free since it is so old and out of date and broadband is the only connection type you should pay for.
