Hi

The 32 bit version will work fine as will likely the 64 bit. Alas the 64 bit 
version hasn't had enuf of the apps converted over to my liking and you may 
well find the same. Either way I'd suggest the alternate  over the live cd in 
your case. I have a recent laptop as well and the live cds just wont seem to 
go thru the install process without hanging. And to get xtra speed out of it 
u can always apply the various performance tweaks
