I tested nearly distribution you can imagine, and I found Vector Linux to be the best
option for very old machines. Old computers go at the speed of
light with it, and no other operating system with graphic
interface had shown to be more speedy for me than it.

You might be surprised how much you
can do with the command line only. You can play music and browse
the web even using cli programs :-) If I had a machine that
resource constrained, I would probably install ubuntu server on
it and potentially X and a basic window manager (fluxbox
perhaps) if I really felt the need. Most of the time, cli would
be the best bet.
As far as being too old to boot from usb, if you wish you can
use a cd to load the usb drive. A quick google showed me this
page:

I can't speak to it, but I have done similar things in the past.
The internet is your friend here. Nothing is impossible, but
consider your time investment ;-)
