Hi,
This is a bit off-topic.
I have an ancient computer: Intel Celeron 700Mhz, 512MB RAM, 20GB IDE HD.

(Hardware upgrades are not in the picture.)

So, do you have tips on which Linux flavour to install on this machine?
I'd suggest ArchLinux. It's a very lightweight distro that's based on a
rolling release (like Gentoo), but uses binary packages instead. I use
it on my two main computers. On one I'm only using Awesome as window
manager and on the other OpenBox. Nothing else.
Alternatively, I run Debian "Lenny" with KDE on a number of machines of
that sort of spec. For later Debians consider XFCE irrespective of
system spec.
