Ok so I was clearing out a friends garage and came across an old Dell Latitude XPi laptop. (this thing is over 10 years old) It has at the moment Windows 95 installed on it. But I want to know is there a copy of Linux I can use on this thing I mean it only has 1.17GB HDD and 16Mb of RAM. Im not expecting a good answer but if I can install anything on there I want to play around and use it for fun.

So to all the Linux guys and gals out there can you come back with an answer that will make me happy?
