Well, I honestly don't know how do the variants of Ubuntu 
differ.  I used Debian a long time ago, and then switched to 
Ubuntu and have never tried anything else since.  Of course, 
if you want to give up and get a new computer, that's up to 
you -- it seems a bit old and that you've used it well past 
its expected lifetime.

However, if you want us to tell you that you should throw 
the computer away, I would probably try another distribution 
first (maybe a few) before calling it a quits.  Not having 
tried Mint myself, I have to say that the level of "support" 
on askubuntu is pretty good.  You could use Mint and ask 
there, but I think many people there use Ubuntu more than 
other Ubuntu-like distributions.

Good luck!
