I've got many clients still using Windows 98 - either because they really don't need any more or they have some legacy application that won't run on newer windows (DOS apps). Seems to me this could be a good opportunity to get Linux converts if there were a linux distro specifically tailored to machines currently running Win98 (ie: lowerend P2 and up, 64M ram, etc). Their needs are generally minimal: internet, email, office, and maybe a special DOS application or two. If this distro included a working/easy DOS layer, I could get several clients to switch right away. Does anyone know of a distro focused on this type of user? What windows manager would be pretty good - I heard that XFCE is a rather lightweight desktop? Are there any distros specifically focused on Xfce? Does anyone have a similar need for their clients? Would you be interested in a distro that did this? thanks -- W.
