Linux Today, there is no shortage of reviews on Linux on the Desktop, but I think we can benefit from more "Laptopized-Linux" experiences. As laptops keep dropping in price and increasing in terms of computing power, they really make a nice platform even for cpu intensive applications such as sofware development, desktop publishing, web design, etc. And as you will see in this article, installing Linux on a laptop is not as hairy as you may think.

For now, it's good enough to drag-n-drop from my ssh connection to my desktop, work there, and drag back when I'm done. It would be nice to get remote editing capabilities though.

Do you desperately rely on using the mouse for editing with vim? Otherwise I'd suggest to log on to the remote machine via command-line ssh and use vim in the terminal.
