FreeBsd on compaq presario 2500

Hi all

I have a very old laptop "Compaq Presario 2500". Feel wasted to leave it there so decide to install any unix-like system. Any recommanded unix-like OS for this laptop ?

- RAM: 512 MB

Sorry if this is wrong place.
 
on a laptop, you generally want it to "just work". So i'd go with Ubuntu or Fedora. Plus they have the latest and greatest of support for laptops. I go with Ubuntu personally. But you can have fun installing piece by piece all your software components and getting the wireless to work, Power Management, etc.
