I already have one machine that runs awesomely with Ubuntu 6.06 (vintage
2006!)

I have had mixed experiences with later releases, including a persistent
Black Screen with Debian Wheezy.  Stretch "kind of works" (with slow
Graphics).  So why do I keep it?  Best Sound System of  *any*  computer I
have  *ever*  owned! So it has two, basic Partitions:  One for Stretch and
one for Ubuntu 6.  (And yes, I don't regularly put Ubuntu 6 on the open
Internet).
