OS for crappy old laptop

Name: Anonymous 2005-02-19 5:31

Ive got a 200mhz pII 64mb ram laptop that i want to play around with, so i was looking for some recommendations for some Linux distros that would run on such a low spec machine. I might try to run win2k or just junk it, but it would be nice to know what kind of options i have.

i have heard that ubuntu is easy. a good lightweight desktop manager for linux is xfce. it takes up very little processing power or memory.

gnome and kde are both very resource intensive, i remember kde ran quite slowly on my old p3 800mhz laptop with 192mb of ram.
