I think this is the environment where puppy linux shines (wags?).
  http://www.puppylinux.org/
  http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyLinuxMainPage

There are probably others.
Damn Small Linux comes to mind, but I think that one is so pared-down
that it may be considered a repair/diagnostic tool rather than a
distribution. Other opinions invited here.

And someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Puppy is busybox based,
resulting in some programs having different or missing command-line
options. This may only be a concern for *nix veterans -- but still, it
might be useful to be aware of it.
