Debian Potato's also quite good in low-end PCs. Our kiosks here in UP Manila are running on P100's with fvwm and Netscape 4.76 with only 16 MB of RAM and it's quite fast and running Linux 2.2.19pre17 in ext3fs. Also running a P90 with 16 MB at the office. Blackbox as the WM and it's still snazzy while being fast even in 2.4.12ac1 with 32MB of swap space. Paolo Falcone > _ > Philippine Linux Users Group.
