I can vouch for OpenBSD on a ThinkPad T21 & T43.. no problems.  OpenBSD
on any IBM/Lenovo laptop is a pretty good bet.

While Craigs list has it fair share of shifty_dudes, it is a little
more personal (local) than ebay.  There is even a slight chance you get
an opportunity to slip in a CD to see if it boots well.

Your specs are in the sweet spot for a bargain.  This brings 74 items:
