And, you can squeeze 96M into the LX (haven't tried that trick
with the Classic -- yet)
I'd recommend looking into running either
OpenBSD or maybe NetBSD on
them. I know OpenBSD has a small enough memory footprint to fit on one
nicely
(won't guarentee it's supported hardware though as I don't have any
LX's). Even Solaris 2.6 will be painful on one.
NetBSD runs very nicely on an LX. About ten years ago, I had a whole
slew of them dedicated to different tasks on my home network...a
nameserver, a news server, a mail server, a file server...all running
NetBSD and performing their jobs quite well.
