Linux, or at least the GUI part, is like anything else - it needs a reasonably fast processor and memory, plus disk space. It's hard to state minimums, because it mostly depends on what you want to do with it. And what distribution you choose. There are some distributions which are designed specifically for "lesser" machines. And some window managers which use only a small amount of resources. That's one of the advantages of Linux, you have a choice. Irv
