It is possible to run Opensuse 10.2 on that hardware, though I have some
doubt that the effort is worth the result. We are using a Pentium 650 as a
samba server in our company, but we are using a good scsi hardware raid.

Depending on what kind of webpages you intend to set up, a Pentium 300
will be slow, not matter what kind of distro you are running.
