I've only just discovered it a few days ago, burned a copy, and installed it
onto a Compaq Presario 2103US of all things.

It went smoothly, and came up into an attractive GNOME-ish GUI which ran
*VERY* well despite the machine only having 256MB of RAM.  Historically,
KDE/DeadRat feels more like M$ Windows XP in terms of bringing powerful
machines to their knees unless very amply configured.  But I will concede
that my sensitivities to performance issues are probably more than most. 
GUI/OS responsiveness rates extremely highly for me.  The odd "lags" and
choppy scrolling and window-tearing during dragging of Mac OSX for example
disqualify it completely, though clearly lots of people don't mind it.

I have no horror stories yet.

If you can, give it a try.
