Mandrake 10.0.1 can fit in there quite nicely both for the 'server' and 
the client machines. "Mandrake Control Centre" gives you a nice 
point'n'click setup for most of the stuff you'll need for whatever you 
have at present.

I seamlessly swapped out a Win2k server for a Mandrake setup. The 
Windoze client users only noticed that it seemed to be 'a bit faster'.

Just to put a word in for Mandrake (:-))

Mandrake 10.0.1 GNU Linux

Errk... That should cure it. Might you be returning to the ashes and 
dust of a few bits of smoking remains?

You should especially come to this Wednesday's talk!!!

Good luck,
Martin
