The used PIII's are Dell Optiplex (small case). I tried one with SuSE
9.0 and 
Knoppix (Debian Testing/Unstable). Right now it's running the Knoppix
flavor 
of Debian installed to the hard-drive. Works fine for. But it was closer
to 
130 or so(?). Might have been smarter to go the little extra and get a
1200 
duron.
