Starting up a webserver

So I just got a computer someone wasn't using (Athlon 64 FX-51 😵). Is a FX-51 sufficient to run a webserver off of (not really going to get any traffic) I want to throw Linux on it and start messing around with php/mysql/? (my work was all aspx/MS Sql Server/c#). Recommendations for which Linux build to use? Also, what would the best equivalent be for c#? I started to mess around with my own webserver earlier, but I gave up when I started running into issues since it was on the machine I mainly use.
 
Definitely. Up until a few months ago I ran Ubuntu, the whole LAMP stack, a bind9 name daemon, and a bunch of other crap on a Pentium 4.

As for which build, I typically prefer Debian, but lately have just been using Ubuntu (which is Debian at heart). Ubuntu is packaged more sanely than Debian, and there seem to be less versions to sort through.

Equivalent to C#? I'd set up Eclipse for Python development and mess around with Django.
