I use Lubuntu on a older TOSHIBA Satellite with a Intel Celeron 2.16 GHz) 2 GB Memory and the machine I'm on now is a older e machine not sure on the specks, picked it up on ebay for 65.00 and it works fine for what I need it to do.
My only issue is Chromium on the laptop for whatever reason crashes and freezes up where I have to hard boot. Installed FF and works great the last 6 months.
Lubuntu and Ubuntu has it purpose. Ubuntu serves more modern PC's. For older systems, may not be the best choice as it is somewhat heavy on your system, although most likely not as heavy as Windows.
Lubuntu is a nice alternative. Based on the LXDE environment which aims to be lightweight, still it's Ubuntu under the hood.
It's No Debian but it's what I prefer for older machines.
You also have Kubuntu and Xubuntu.
Have not played with those yet to give a opinion.
