Laptop Linux Distro

Most suited linux/unix distro for this laptop.?
I have recently bought an Asus k50IN laptop with 4 G ram and intel core 2 duo 2.1 GHz processor.I want a good distro that will use my ram so it isn't wasted.
I want it to look good(kde) and powerfull,fast and stable.
I thoroughly recommend Linux Mint 7 Main Edition which is built upon Ubuntu 9.04 Its easy to install and easy to use plus it comes with much of the software you are likely to need preinstalled

You download the ISO. image of Linux Mint 7 then you need to create a Bootable LiveCD for installation
Linux Mint 7 can also be run direct from the LiveCD from Booting up without touching your Hard Drive
