Picked up a Toshiba Satellite Pro 435CDS from Value Village and am excited to see if I can get it to work. Does anyone have any recommendations for a distro that'll work on this dinosaur?

Two spiffy thrift store art finds today: A detail print from Michelangelo's iconic fresco, “Pull My Finger”, and a wood print of Rodney White’s “Insanity”.

Made a thrift store run last night and ended up with some random things I probably didn't need, but still seemed kind of fun. (A common theme to my thrift store shopping.)
Total for the trip was a little more than $12.
A Dell Latitude E6540 I rescued from Value Village that was marked "for parts". Installed Fedora and it runs like a champ.
