John I've followed this thread for a while and think I may be what you are looking for.
I'm 58 yrs old and have a PII 266 with 64kb. Last year i bought mandrake 8.0 power pack, i stuck it in the cd and eveything went fine. I have KDE, Internet connection, web browsing, Star office, xmms, gimp, bluefish, gcash and loads of other things, also proper sound and all with vey little hassle although its a little slow. For me it was just as easy as M$98 which was my only other os install experience. Long live mandrake regards Pete
