    Thumbs up What To Choose From, Hmmm

    I have been looking about for a linux distro for my recent linux box. The distro has to be light on the system as I will be running it on a:

    - 333-800MHZ Intel 2-3 processor, 128-256 RAM, 5-10 GB HD, WiFi PCMIA card.

    I want to run OpenOffice, Thunderbird, Firefox, Aircrack, and some more general tools nothing fancy. What Linux OS do you recommend me running?
