I would get Redhat, but make sure to put some more RAM in your old box or it will run very slow. Even opening an open office program took me a few minutes on my Duron 1.4 GHz 128MB DDR onboard video setup.
Now I have a XP Barton 2500 with 256MB DDR and a Geforce3 Ti200 and it opens in a blink of an eye- I dont know what did it but Im betting it was the extra RAM.

It's ok I like windows too, but sometimes you wonder what lies in the land of *nix.
