    Hey there,
    Just got a real old laptop (Toshiba) and wanna play around with it a little. There is no OS on it :-( and it only has a 116MB hard disk, have not a clue how old it really is but its gotta be old if that's d size of the HDD.

    Anyhow, was thinking about putting Win95 on it, will it fit?? Would there be much point? Secondly there is no CD-ROM drive so it will have 2 be the floppy route! If anyone out there has Win95 on floppies could you get in touch please.

    Just wanna play around with it basically and I'm not expecting much form it.

    Thanx

    if it's got only a 116mb hdd i doubt win95 will go on it

    Linux can be as small as you want it and it can run from cd
