Look, if a 133mhz and 32mb ram you can use windows ce, windows mobile, etc...with a worst hardware you can run linux. My personal Tip: you can use an older version of linux, such as Slackware. Today, slack is on version 12 or 13. You can download version 5, for example. You will get a good OS in your embedded system, with a 486 with 16mb RAM. Windows is more complicated, but the result is "clearer" than Linux. You can choose. Good Luck

| Hey abdalla....you can try firstly at ubuntu site. If you no longer will use graphical interface, i'm surelly you can run on any 386 with 133Mhz, and maybe less processor...but if you will use graphical interface, probably KDE isn't the better option. You can try another lightweight X server. Try searching ubuntu site, or, better, www.google.com/linux. Its a google just for linux!!!! Try searching also embedded linux in this site.....good luck!!
