As it is free to download and install any Linux based operating system, it is possible to try a variety - Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Puppy, and so on - before making a final choice. If Windows is already the laptop's operating system, use the Linux CDs as a 'Live CD', which allows you to try the new OS without making changes to the hard-drive (work is done in RAM only).
Once a choice has been made, either install the Linux OS alongside Windows - dual-booting, or allow Linux to wipe the hard-drive and install Linux only. Another method is to use WUBI (use Google for details) to install Ubuntu as a file on a Windows machine.

How do you connect a laptop to a PC if the laptop does not have an OS and the PC runs XP?
Install xp on the laptop. A laptop won't work without an operating system.You can do this. But how do you mean "connect"? If you want to share files, then here's a way. If the laptop has a floppy drive and a network card you can make a network bootdisk to boot the laptop and connect to the laptop using ethernet . This will allow you to access shares on the desktop and u can copy over files from the laptop to the desktop but you can't access the laptop from the desktop.You can also try "LapLink" google it for more info.
