You'll be amazed how tiny the requirements of DSL actually are! But it can actually be made to look really good - it looks just like a modern desktop if you tweak it. And, yes, DSL (and Puppy) will go on a 5.25" floppy drive. If there's enough RAM it will run entirely in a ramdisk and go very fast. With DSL, my 256 MB looks enormous, and my huge 15 GB hard drive is way over the top.
Just a little warning. If you have anything other than a source drive and a target drive plugged in when you install one of these mini systems, it usually seems to mess up anything else it finds. Be safe and unplug anything else that isn't read-only.
