Got an old computer and don't know what to do with it?

O.K. folks, it's time to dust off that old door stopper of a computer. There is a distro called Puppy Linux that will run that old timer for you. It runs in ram. You don't even need a hard
drive!!! Here is the link: http://www.puppylinux.org/user/viewpage.php?page_id=1
It is Slackware based and will fit on a flash drive. They have great how tos, and all in all a really fun distro. It should run on a PII provided you have at least 128 megs of ram(less with a swap partition). Watch that old boot fly with Puppy!!! With high speed internet you will be up and running in less than a hour. That includes downloading, burning the disc, installing and setup!! Have fun, lol pch
