I have a Pentium laptop with 1 gig of memory that has Fedora installed 
on it.

I have a 486 with 32 mb of memory that runs with the cpu pegged at 100% 
7x24.  It has a video capture card and it is watching my driveway.  If 
someone pulls up driveway a photo pops up on my desktop.  A very old 
version of Linux, I don't even remember the distro as I don't mess with 
it.  It just runs.
