I use it on a 800mhz  old emachine 256k ram, Its perfect My wife uses windows me on the same machine for school (they are very picky on using MS word and we cant get rid of it for the time being) I like the live idea, never any viruses or spyware. I have another machine with a celeron 2.6 w/ 512k ram that I use as a pvr with xp on it (too many driver problems for mythtv)
anyway excelent extremely fast program and it makes me dread loading windows.
thanks

I also use it on two computers with a 2 GHz Pentium 4 and 512MB RAM at my college.  I usually listen to the Digitally Imported trance stream and play netplay games with ZSNES.

On my Compal DL70 laptop with a 1.7 GHz Pentium M and 1GB RAM, DSL runs fine, but the screen looks a little stretched out.  I would rather have the resolution to be at 1680x1050 than 1400x1050

I usually test DSL on slower hardware, currently a Compaq Armada M700 with P3 450MHz and 192 MB RAM. Not a speedy laptop by today standard.

I am testing ArkLinux 2005.2 RC3 on this laptop. I've thinking about doing a harddisk install of DSL or something similar in the future since these little gems are perfect for this type of hardware.

I am running dsl hd install as a web (xlampp suite,) ftp, ssh servers on a celeron 333 with 256 MB ram without x-window and it run better than my duron 1 gig/ 512 MB ram with Mepis installed.  Still having a few problem with apt-get but for now it's the best OS for this old junky system.:D
