Hi,
Just a thought local user groups quite often help and support new users

Can I please add that having spent some time away from Ubuntu (due to

On that age of machine I would consider lubuntu or xubuntu or even
crunchbang (not a *buntu but Debian based lightweight Openbox os, hope I
don't break any list rules straying from *buntus)
Also look at how much RAM the machine has, it can be picked up for a few
pounds now !
