I use my ancient IBM ThinkPad 380 under RedHat for empeg database maintenance and occasional upload with no problem. However, ripping from its CD-ROM drive either takes forever, or introduces not so infrequent clicks and pops into mp3s (sometimes both), depending on cdparanoia settings. Of course, YMMV.
