It's a Del Inspiron 7000 (>8.5 y/o - my mistake).
CPU: PentiumII 366Mhz
MB Chipset: 440LX chipset.
Memory: 256MB
Graphics: MACH64 GPU with 8MB RAM. (Gives 113fps [!!!] in glxgears with
hand built DRI drivers....)
Disk: 14GB drive, 3400 (?) RPM.
DE: XFCE 4.4b (It does run both GNOME and KDE... though both are too
slow for my taste)

Oh, I can upgrade the machine to 384MB, but the machine has survived two
>1m falls and I rather not push my luck ;)
