Wow. It might be good for something like puppy linux. (You can look
over distrowatch.com and take a look at some of the distributions there.
Desktop oriented distributions like Ubuntu, Fedora, and SuSE aren't good
candidates. Fedora, at least, won't even give you a graphical install
with less than 512 MB of RAM.

Spike: Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after
day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is
desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And
now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or
the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has
a death wish. Even you.
