Laptop display doesn't work with Linux.

Uhh--I'm running Linux exclusively on my laptop...

Desktop can't get reasonable display resolution with Linux.

...and I'm running 1280x1024 resolution.

Laptop wireless network card MUST have Windows drivers to work

While I'm running that particular configuration, I happen to personally know quite a few people who run wireless natively under Linux--without any troubles.

Why do you keep posting this when we know you've admiited to having a bootable Windows VM on there before?

Typical linux user response, empty claims of no benefit to anyone.

LOL!!! It hasn't occurred to you that my laptop may not be the same as your laptop? You're not making a very good showing for Linux!
