Ubuntu is great when rescuing old and tired laptops back to life. Currently i have 10.04 running on 2 elder laptops. Now they work great.

I am running 11.04 on my T410. I dont like the new interface so I switched it to the classic. I use to run VMware on it back around release 9 but there were too many bugs in the interface. I had to edit the config to get it to work properly then whenever a kernel update came out I had to go back and re config it after a recompile. Got tired of it. I run virtual box now and have my XP, and win7 machines running under it. My son's laptop was an old T43 that I had Ununtu on and it ran like a champ and he had no issues learning the interface. I have a transcoder set up on my laptop right now for the PS3 so I can stream unsupported video formats to it. Works with my phone as well.

@ wvloony
How did you get on with this endeavor, did you end up getting an OS into your laptop?
