He has a 0.3GHz Pentium II. I doubt he'll be able to run that.

That's why I said not necessarily Ubuntu. As suggested above, Puppy is mainstream and a very good start.

Ok.. i relaxed after some time.. jesus christ my temper boils over sometimes.. sorry, bear over.
It was only half-serious tho, hence the video and mentioning of Armok.

mentioning of Armok.

2 Armok, Chapter 10:

13 When you say his name, he looks at you
You have not known fear, he has looked on your face
14 And when he looks on you he sees
All of the things you have done in his name
All you have not
15 Your ass will become the seeds of the field
A harvest will grow from your entrails
16 Do not take his name in vain.

You could always set it to generate bitcoins.

I can vouch for Puppy. It's not big, it's not shiny, but it's incredibly user friendly.
...I can see why they called it that, to be honest.

Although, all this talk of OS has gotten me wondering... I know this is just a cheap nothing expected computer, but what Architecture does it use? It certainly isn't going to become lightening bolt fast, but there may be a cheap component out there that'll double it's speed or something.

Hm... You should move this to Life Advice (since it's not really a general discussion type of a topic).

Life Advice, last time I checked, was for any help with anything.
