@"caddo man" Personally I use CentOS, Kali, and sometimes Fedora. I need to maintain some level of compatibility with my clients and they use either Red Hat or CentOS.
For a personal machine that you're just screwing around with, Fedora should be fine. I wouldn't invest in SSD's unless the current drives are on their last leg, and even then I'd probably just hit up Newegg for some cheap hard drives instead of SSD's.
I have Kali on an old Dell Mini 10 netbook (Intel Atom N450). Changing the default desktop from Gnome3 to MATE gave a drastic increase in speed. Gnome3 is very heavy handed as a desktop environment. Changing to MATE (which is a fork of the older, much faster Gnome2) or XFCE will speed things up tremendously.
Personally, I wouldn't fuck with Neverware and stick to Fedora or Ubuntu for your older machines.
