Got a PII 233mHz. Only distro I had that would install. I'm not into building my own kernels to fit.

Why did I go with this OS?

1) My laptop crashed and I lost my Windows disc.  Not going to pay $150 to replace my OS.

2) This is the only version of linux on which I could get my existing wireless card to work.

Wanted to try Linux !
I tried several other distros and this is the one that worked best !

It's as simple as I am , and runs on the dusty old Celeron Coppermine 566 MHZ 32M memory that's been sitting in the corner.

Awsome !
