Your computer can run Linux just fine, actually amazingly at that...and overkill by about 10 times as well.

I can run most any 32-bit distro of Linux on my 733Mhz P3, and many people run different distros on P2s. Linux is easily the least taxing of any OS for outdated computers. The cpu you have now is high-end for NOW.

I'd like to know who told you an Intel was needed to run Linux. I realize some Intel fanboys have gotten ridiculous lately...but this is unbelievable.
