In current days of distro like Ubuntu, Opensuse, and Mandriva, being "suitable" is not enough anymore (I think). Try install Centos on a notebook, and we will see that the wifi is not recognized. Sure as sysadmin we can do ndiswrapper, etc. But what will "ordinary" / first-timer say?
You're comparing apples to oranges here. I didn't say it was the best /distro/ for a laptop (or notebook), I just said I use it there. And, yes, wireless was a pain, but that's life in Linux without all the fancy Windows trappings....
My personal view is: As server: Yes, yes, yes As desktop: Simply no (comparing to other distros).
As you said, this is a personal view.
