I also recommend Thinkpad. But how old Thinkpad it needs to be so it's not capable to run a modern browser? I have Thinkpad from 2010 (added SSD and some RAM)

  Yes, OP should look at something from 2005, or original Raspberry pi. I've used a 2011 Thinkpad for web development with IntelliJ IDE, no major issues.

  Need to check the graphics card. Thinkpad X60 dual core 32bit (dothian?) CPU with Intel i915 graphics runs into problems with Firefox 113 because mesa 23.5 does not support that card. Falls back to llvmpipe (or at least it does on Slackware -current). In theory it should drop to 'Amber' driver (which is mesa 21.something packaged as a fall back) but it does not. However... a Thinkpad T42 (radeon integrated graphics) which is a single core machine with a PATA mechanical hard drive remains remarkably sprightly. Not up to Firefox 113 though I'm using Seamonkey. Another thought is the OS. OpenBSD cheerfully admit to limited attention to the i386 arch[1] and do not provide Firefox as a binary package for i386. I find Seamonkey with the legacy ublock origin is feasible on the machines above.
