Is my laptop fit that?

I have a laptop Acer 292 LMi...OS is Windows XP Home by default. I'm intending to use Linux Red Hat or Mandrake 9.0....but i'm confused with someone who told me that no laptop will suit with Linux OS.. is that true? what should i do, let's say, that i only have one laptop, no PC.... any suggestion?

Thx
