If you've heard about Linux and feel like giving it a go or if you want to try Linux but you're too afraid it'll shew up your computer, this article is for you. Read it, feel free to take what you need and ignore the rest. This is not a tutorial, it's a README-FIRST-like article. It should help you to take that first dive.

I question the author's definition of ancient hardware. I have installed Linux on much weaker computers than the author has suggested, and it still runs great.
Of course, if your definition of Linux includes running KDE or GNOME, the story will be a bit different. Those two seem to drink memory like they just spent 15 days in the desert without water.
