Google is your friend:

I've installed linux on an old Gateway, Toshiba Libretto L70, Toshiba
Portege 3025CT, Sony Vaio PCG-V505BC, and a ThinkPad 600E. They've run
various versions of Red Hat (up to 7.3) and Slackware (from 8.0-10.1). Each
has done everything _I've_ wanted them to do. YMMV.
Happy buying,
Rich
