How would running something like PuppyLinux compare to running NT4 on a
system like that? When you say 13 year old PC's what does that mean in terms
of processor and memory.

I recently listened to a podcast where a guy took a pc that was about 10
years old (P3) and he said Puppylinux really worked well on it. But 13 years
old (plus another 5 years).. I'm not so sure. I'd be interested to know
though.
