From what I heard, It Still should work perfectly fine, as it never broke down until her retirement. She had it as a work Laptop so I'm guessing there will be some windows NT on there. The condition is just about perfect!

Also the old design of the intel sticker adds to the style as well, i don't think I've ever seen that design.
And btw you've gotta let us see it turned on

I recognize that laptop. It started manufacture in 2002. Some details about it in case you need more info for maintenance.
Edit: Having Mandriva on it would make sense. It still existed back then. OpenMandriva is its successor, but I have no idea when that change happened.
