Hi, any of the old systems would be good. The team at lubuntu are doggedly committed to keep a flavour of the ubuntu family available for older computers, not just the quad core 8GB RAM systems :)
So as we don't bore people on this mailing list, and in my usual futile attempt to herd cats there is a mailing list for lubuntu qa testing via https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Do feel free to join the group. Regards, Phill.
