I have an old retired computer (1/2 GB main memory) and I want to install a linux system so that I can write some C-code and build a simulator (make, gdb). In particular, it does not need anythinig more than rudimentory window-dressings, keyboard, and mouse. I have another MS system for my day-to-day networking and internet stuff.
With this minimalistic set of constraints, and some searching, I have basically come to the conclusion that any of the distributions would satisfy my requirements. So, do any of the distributions actually come with the C-compiler already bundled in and ready to make? OR is this just a simple "go download it, install it, and it all works just fine" kind of problem?
