From the sounds of it with Win95, or 98 it should be serviceable. Using GAIM or anything but AIM in place of AIM due to it’s much lower memory usage.

I still use my old p133 laptop with 80MB RAM running win95 for dial-up on occasion when it’s needed. Suprisingly speedy if you keep flash off of it.
