    Exclamation Linux for old PC

    Hi,
    I have installed Ubuntu on my main PC(high spec). On this PC I have a dual boot with Windows XP Pro.

    I have an old PC:
    256MB Ram
    60GB HDD

    I got rid of Windows Home on this PC. I installed Xubuntu. While I am delighted with Ubuntu I am not convinced about Xubuntu. What are your views on the best Linux distro for a my old spec PC? I want to change from Xubuntu to another distro on this old PC. I have heard good things about

    Parsix
    Pardus
    Granular
    Blag
    wolvix

    would any of these be good for my old PC?

    Any input appreciated. Thanks.

    I see that you subscribe to the same boards that I do...

    Try Puppy Linux 3.0.1 it should really run great on your system with no upgrades required.
    Click the HARD DRIVE tab for more info.

    Take a look at PCLINUXOS 2007. It may be what you're looking for.
