Rubbish PC

This computer was made up from still more left over bits from when I was gathering parts to put together the last couple of computers.  I can't really think of a practical use for it, but I had the parts, so I thought I'd see what could be done with it.  Once you start to dabble with computers you tend to collect parts like flies around a rubbish heap.

I'm trying out DeLi Linux on it, but I'm not overly keen on it.  As an experiment to run a cut-down version of Linux, it's not too bad.  But it's a bit too cut-down.

Hardware-wise, it has a 100 MHz 6x86 P120+ CPU, 32 megs of SIMM RAM, an ISA sound, a 1 or 2 meg S3 PCI video, and a very old 14 inch VGA VDU.
