If you are stuck with a slow Desktop/Laptop that cannot handle Windows XP, Vista and new Linux operating systems, you may want to try Xubuntu. I am using it myself with my Laptop since its too bloody slow and low on RAM and its great. It is great for laptops since it improves battery lifetime by using low resources and still offers decent GUI and the latest software.

Xubuntu is a community developed operating system that is perfect for laptops and desktops. Whether you use it at home, at school or at work Xubuntu contains all the applications you'll ever need, from word processing and email applications, to web server software and programming tools.
Xubuntu is and always will be free of charge. You do not pay any licensing fees. You can download, use and share Xubuntu with your friends, family, school or business for absolutely nothing.
We issue a new desktop and server release every six months. That means you'll always have the latest and greatest applications that the open source world has to offer.
Xubuntu is designed with security in mind. You get free security updates for at least 18 months and with the Long Term Support (LTS) version you get three years support. There is no extra fee for the LTS version, we make our very best work available to everyone on the same free terms. Upgrades to new versions of Xubuntu are and always will be free of charge.
