According to CentOS system requirements, I should never have been to get CentOS 4 running on al old PC with a 500 Mhz Celeron and only 128 MB of RAM, but it worked for over 2 years, then I got some spare RAM from a broken PC and increased it to 256 MB RAM and the lady who owns the PC is still running it to this day... and very glad she's running Linux instead of Windows. :)
What would be more amazing to me, is if he had been running XP on a machine w/only 64 MB of RAM.
