Hi,

I'm concidering buying a used laptop with 128 MB ram and 10 GB disk.
I will put Linux on it and run Eclipse for Java development.
Speed is not primary although I'd like to avoid constant swapping.

Are the specs too feeble or is there a chance this will work?

You can always use a LiveCD (like Slax) to check it out.
Slax allows you to build a "custom" distribution that include Elispe/Java modules, which are trivial to create.
