My ex has an old Celeron 700Mhz system with around 300+ MB ram.
It is currently running XP SP2 and as you can imagine is dog slow.
I thought that the old celerons (pre P4) were basically only a tad slower than the equivelent P3.
I used to have an old P3 500 MHZ lying around and it played dixv encoded and flash video fine so I was supprised when the Celeron couldn't.
Even running chrome or firefox uses almost 100% cpu.
What OS and other software would you recommend to get this working as a web browsing machine?
