@nregmi
For your old system; Id straightaway recommend Zenwalk. Version 4.2 Runs on a PII with 64 MB RAM better than Win2000.
As you already have a new system, I wouldnt recommend an upgrade on the older one. I think you just wanna use it as second backup PC, right?
Use the latest Zenwalk. Then as you gain experience, you may use Arch/Gentoo to you liking.
For your Newer System; Id reccommend openSUSE 11 over Fedora 9 anyday. Fedora just isnt cutting it out these days.
Though Id recommend the latest Linux Mint for the new PC. Has all restricted format support and as it is Ubuntu based, has vast repositories. Perfectly newbie oriented.
IronMan.
PS: @nregmi. Where do you stay?
