Decent distro with low requirements?

Hi,

I'm after a decent distro thats got really low requirements. NOT DSL though, as I truly hate it.

It needs to have at least:

A GUI, decent Wifi networking and run decently on a 266mhz Pentium 2M, 128mb RAM and a 10gb Laptop.

I was thinking about installing an older distro of Ubuntu on it (something like Breezy badger and below), but what do you think?

Cheers!

Depends if it’s an air brick or not, I suppose.
