Linux will probably run on that box.

If it has a P4 or newer processor with SSE2 capability (not in Athelons), you can run the current Linux versions of Calibre and Sigil.

It all depends on which apps you use (and love) on XP and if there is an equivelent one for Linux.
eg.
Office = Open/Libre Office
IE = Firefox
Paintshop Pro = Gimp ( IMHO More powerful, but also more difficult)

(my total Linux show stoppers)
Forte Agent == Pan
Eudora
