[xubuntu-users] Xu vs. 486DX2

[João Santiago]

Maybe i'm wrong in thinking in can be done but i wanted to use this old
computer as a webserver, just to host a small site or so and the laptop as a
html editor. is slackware good on these (486, 32mb ram)? or is DSL, tiny or
puppy a better choice? maybe the server wouldnt need an advanced distro and
the laptop could use a better/newer one
