The only reason why they're slow was the choice of window manager as a
default.  If you remove GNOME or KDE, it should be fine, and it'll
free up those precious megs on that old hard drive.  I was just
impressed with Vector Linux's minimalism and good default options
without leaving you with just a command prompt.  Many modern distros
seem to give you all or none, or endure countless options to install;
Vector was a happy medium between the extremes without having to waste
an entire afternoon in menus.
