Some distributions stopped supporting 32 bit machines. Each year you need more ram to run the same apps. Proprietary drivers like NVidia stop publishing drivers for what they think is old hardware, and the open source version doesn't have the full feature set. Modern videos use codecs that can not keep running fast enough on pathetic machines. -- Cheers, Carlos.
