RE: [PLUG] new, old computer

Well, you don't have to upgrade the ram, but you should if you want to do
anything graphical. If you are just using it as a router or a small test
web/ftp/smb server, then there is no need.
beyond that, check out
http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/genpage2.cgi?pagename=hcl
the red hat compatability list. Should give you an idea of where to start.
It also tells you the kernel module to use for the device.
