I would add my 2 cents for DSL ( http://damnsmalllinux.org ) and Puppy
Linux. I prefer DSL but not with the default windowmanager. I prefer
Fluxbox. Puppy will work fine, too, I suspect.

With DSL, the newer versions are easy to update/upgrade. I haven't used
Puppy enough. I've never installed it to a hard drive. I have DSL
installed on my cell phone as an embedded OS. That means, I plug it into
any MSWin PC and run a batch file and QEMU comes up and runs DSL inside.
If a Linux PC has either qemu or has WINE enabled, I can run it from
there, too.

HTH,

Karl
