Hi
I'm a fairly new to linux - have installed Mandriva alongside xp at
home.
At work, I have a number of old laptops running Win 98-W2K but want to
wipe these and run a linux distro on them instead. They're not very
powerful - probably got the following spec:
128 RAM
Intel P111 processor (1GHz)
20 Gb hard drive
I'm looking for a distro that will run fast on this type of laptop. And
am only really looking for it to run office type software.
Any idea what distribution I should take a look at??
Thanks, Matt
