Any older business class laptop really. I have an two older Laptops. One is a Dell 6410.
The former has Debian on it with Gnome and I've stuck 8Gb of ram on the machine, slapped in an SSD.
The machine is 14 years old and it can reasonably handle browsing, mail, Youtube, Discord and VSCode. Gnome actually performs better than XFCE or any of the light-weight DE as long as I am using Wayland.
