Voids what I use on my x60t. Its a good neckbeard distro because the main repo features a lot of terminal or minimalist packages.
It has a smaller "AUR" equivalent, but you find that you don't need it much.

yikes
I installed the latest Mint distro + Openbox and worked fine, but this is with an SSD. With a mechanical drive it would be suicide. The rest is T7600 and 3GB of RAM.
Used it for work for a few weeks after I spilled coffee in my work laptop, sysadmin work. It behaved mostly fine, considering it is an 80 dollar laptop + upgrades (came with a T2400, 2GB RAM, HDD), I really enjoyed working with it.
Of course I'm not delusional, I could not do any heavy work like loading multiple VMs, though I did have a shitload of applications loaded and the old boy still responded well in general.
chuck it in the bin where it belongs

it's pretty snappy as long as you have an SSD
Ye, only have the original hdd as of now, it sounds like a damn geiger counter, and i also only have 2gigs of RAM
MX Linux or antiX, depending on your CPU and memory.
They're both incredibly light and efficient Debian distros. antiX can run on a Pentium 3.
Try something I haven't, open suse
An fsf-aproved distro, since you can.
+1, from a t61 openbsd user
