We know the concept of "technological obsolescence of computers" is
mostly the propaganda work of the hardware industry and is not founded
in user needs
The following article details some aspects, but does not compute a
minimum theoretical footprint :

"Addressing technological obsolescence would be the most powerful
approach to lower the ecological footprint of digital technology"
http://www.lowtechmagazine.com/2009/06/embodied-energy-of-digital-technology.html

Of course, FOSS is the only way of possibly reducing the footprint. No
light weight distro seems to explicitly lay stress on these things.
