linux will run on this, with a larger drive. the memory should be fine if
you don't want to run x, and a 386/25 really isn't a slow machine. i ran
yabbs for a year on a 386/16 without too much trouble, with 6 megs of ram,
and a 100 meg disk, under bsd. linux was smaller (i ran it for a while on
a 20 meg drive without too much trouble, but no emacs (i hate emacs anyway),
so you may be able to play around with that...
