Hey. I have an old PC, with a Celeron running at 400-something mhz, a DVD drive, and 256 MB of RAM. It's an old Dell L500c. Does anyone have any suggestions for a Linux distro for it? |

For a lightweight desktop, you might want to try Arch or Xubunutu. I don't know much about other specialized distros, though. You could just use it as a file server. |

Well the only thing that it would be good at other than a boat anchor would be to store files on. And since there is no storage option I chose boat anchor. |

Sell it. To a humorously crusty old captain. "Aye! Tis not an anchor." "This is a Dell L500c, it weighs more than a luxury SUV." "Aye, aye. Very well then." *gives monies* "HOIST THE MAIN-SAIL, YA SCURVY DOGS! OR I'LL HAVE YE THROWN TO THE BOTTOM-FEEDERS!" *Fog horn* Good times... - The-Masses |

Server. Sell the graphics card, buy a crappy one and with the money left upgrade processor and RAM and buy a 1 Terabyte HD, then proceed to fill it with crapload of files. |
