Go for DSL, you can even install it if you want. It's easy on resources and it's only 50MBs and considering that, it comes in with quite a good lot of applications.

You can get it here, www.damnsmalllinux.org

The advantage of Puppy is that it's livecd can be used as a multi-session live cd. This means that you can work from the live cd and save documents etc. in that cd/dvd itself. It is very good. I have once such cd.
