[school-discuss] recommended distro of Linux for PIII/600 MHz older PCs

[Daniel Howard <dhhoward@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another thing we're contemplating at Brandon when we get all new thin 
clients as part of the district pilot rollout of K12LTSP is to take some 
of the existing systems that are PIII/600 MHz or better, install a 
distro of Linux, and donate them to Brandon families that don't have a 
computer at home, or don't have one the kids can use.  Can anyone 
recommend a distro of Linux that would be fast enough on these older 
PCs, yet could still run Firefox, OpenOffice, Tuxtypes, etc. reasonably 
well?
