Linux on an old notebook?

[Jacob Stoll]

hello, i just got an old notebook from my father's company he used for a 
while. It has 120 mhz processor and 40mb of ram. 1.4gb of space on the 
hdd, and in very good shape.  In the small amount of space i have, I 
would like ideas on the best way to set up linux on it. i only need a 
word processor, spreadsheet, browser for basic internet surfing (no high 
end graphic sites or online games), way to access my files on a w2k file 
server, some games, email, mp3. That's basically it. what would be the 
best programs and/or distro to use on what i have. If i can ill take it 
to march's meeting. ( 3-16-03 )
