Hi Damian,
I'll chime in and agree with the suggestion already made by others that
you look at Xubuntu. I have it running at work on my "backup" laptop,
which has a 700MHz Pentium III and 256MB of RAM. Thunderbird and
Firefox are pretty slow to load, but the Xfce desktop environment itself
is fine. It's also running the latest Gutsy Tribe 4 so there's no need
to settle for older software.
You can download the ISO by BitTorrent using this torrent file:
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/xubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
Or you can just yoink down the ISO file (565MB) from here:
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/xubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
Regards,
Andrew.
