I’ve just today been given a really funny thing; a super retro, and super weak, laptop computer. My idea is to only use it to script and learn a little bit of Linux.

The laptop has about 121MB of space, 4.0 MB of RAM, and a 33Mhz processor. Its actually currently running Win95 without dying or anything, so I was thinking of putting a light Linux distro on there. Maybe \*\*\*\* Small Linux, but I dunno.

Any suggestions?
