I have an old PC I built about 11 years ago as gaming system, the specs are:
PII 400
256 mb SDRAM
12 gig HDD
DVD drive
CD burner
Voodoo 2s in SLI
and a Voodoo 3 AGP (can switch to a TNT2 if needed)
So yeah, the system is ancient, but still runs and is used for day to day browsing and office work. I can remove the Voodoos since they aren't really used. Basically I have serious security concerns about running Windows 98, and just about nothing is available for it anymore. I want to put a more modern OS on it, but am completely green with Linux. Are there any relatively lightweight and straightforward Linux distros I can get for this machine?
