Take a look at SAM, the XFce version of PCLinuxOS.  I just installed it on a
couple of Dell 600 MHz GX115's.  I had to add a video card to get 1024 X 768
w/24 bit color but it installed just fine using the onboard video, coming up
at 1024 X 768 w/16 bit color (Xubuntu 6.06.1 LTS and 7.10 weren't able to
boot up on these machines).  It runs smoothly, is very intuitive and
wonderfully user-friendly.
