32-bits is hard. I keep a Vaio P around out of nostalgia, but my options to keep it working are increasingly disappearing. Chrome OS Flex won't run on 32-bits, Arch 32-bits is a now a second tier distro at best (most AUR packages are not compiled to i686 or pentium4) etc. Unless this is a special piece of hardware--and not just yet another generic laptop--do yourself a favor and get it recycled.
