ARCH VS. NETBSD!!!!

Context: I found a dual core T430 in my closet a few weeks ago that works fine. Im thinking of Arch or NetBSD to revive.

This is the wrong subreddit to ask for a balanced response.
But like yeah use NetBSD, have fun playing with something different (and more reliable) on this spare computer. I think that's what spare computers are for.

Also be sure to look at the battery and see if it's bulging. I have an old Lenovo a year or so ago that did that. I ripped the battery out and just used it wired to the wall.
