I have an Acer Ferrari with exactly the same sort of config, but a 15.4" 1680x1050 display. And CentOS x86_64 works fine ( but i cheat a bit and use a newer kernel for bcm WiFi support. ) if working with ndiswrapper is ok with you ( and it should for 95% of the people ), CentOS will work for you out of the box. You will, however, need to disable dma for the ide interfaces.
