My impression is that Linux requires less hardware resources than
window XP. I could run window XP on this machine. Am I right?
I want to get rid of the window xp on this machine since window xp
keeps updates, virus, worms, and it puts a lot of files into
differenct places and eventually slowdonw the system.
It depends what desktop software you pick. Gnome or KDE (the standard
desktops) are happiest at 256-512MB as they include all the "eye candy"
and windows like stuff.
There are lighter weight desktop environments such as Xfce in extras that
are fast on a 128MB machine.
