Best Answer

Yes, although you may need to use an older version of Linux. Give it a shot with the latest and greatest (Be sure to use the 32 bit version), Linux is fairly lightweight and the most modern version may not run too poorly on your older machine. If it won't install, just try an older version until it will install.

What programs are compiled for the Pentium 4?

Very few programs are compiled specifically for the Pentium 4. This is because it makes the code unable to run, or perform worse, on other processors, such as a Pentium III, Athlon 64 X2, or Core Duo. Also, there have been several iterations of the Pentium 4, each adding new features, like SSE2 and HyperThreading. One example of a program compiled with some Pentium 4-specific optimizations is Swiftfox, a recompile of Firefox on Linux.
