It's linux, so basically anything it does that you don't like you can learn to fix yourself. I'd shy away from Gnome (because they like you to have less control, or, less easily anyway), maybe try FrdoraKDE or Mint, popular distros with lots of help online.
If you have "an infinite supply of windows laptops" I'd pick a thinkpad that isn't your main and try it out on that, what do you have to lose? You'll still have your main untouched (until you see the glory of linux and install different distros on all of those laptops, but that'll come later..)
