As for the PC100 RAM, my parents were given an old HP machine with only 64MB RAM running Windows ME, which is apparently too slow to connect to the Internet via ADSL (or so I've been told).
That would have to be a load of old cobblers. A machine of that vintage, fitted with an Ethernet card should be fine. My old Windows ME system is fine - apart from being stuck in a time-warp - but it has got 256MB RAM.
Suggest you try Damn Small Linux .. might work very well. If you can upgrade RAM, try Puppy Linux.
