Hey guys, I am looking for opinions. I have a really crummy (no idea the specs) laptop. I have a server setup with VMs. My task is to find a Linux Distro that can be stripped down to barebones and use a Remote Desktop to get to the server and use it to work.

I know both Fedora and Ubuntu have RDC, I know Fedora install is very customizable. Anyone have suggestions beyond those?

Thanks!
