Hello,

My computer is pretty old.

I wanna know which Fedora most fits in my pc. I hope that this distro
can run well in my box and won't take much resource.

Thank you very much~

If you do succeed in loading Fedora, you'll definitely want to use one
of the 'lighter' desktops like XFCE or Enlightenment rather than KDE or
Gnome. I would suggest you try Elive instead - is there a particular
reason you want Fedora?

I have one old laptop with a 500MHz PIII and 384M and it's usable for
basic tasks like running Evolution and Firefox using Fedora Core with
Gnome. The right solution is to add some RAM, 512M will run much better,
784 will be even better and 1G would be great.
