Monochrome PC & small distros

I have suitcase PC it has a built-in amber monitor with a
486SX25 MB, 32
megs of Ram, a 212 meg HD 14,4 modem, and a 10 base NIC.(no
mouse) It
has had DOS 6,2 on it and I managed to get Red Hat 5.2
"CLI" on it but
there wasn't much room left on HD. I hate to throw it away,
everything
still works like new!

I was wondering which of the small distros out there would
be the best
for my hardware combination. I want to use it just to do
some logging,
and maybe some other Ham Radio chores. I've been looking at:
DSL,
Tiny-LiNuX, STX, Puppy. Which of these or possibly one I
missed would
work the best? Been leaning toward DSL, but not sure...

If you can find a copy of Linux magazine, the DVD that comes
with it has 11
small Distros on it. It should be on shelves. I just got it
in the mail
yesterday.
