I've been running MEPIS v2004.03 on an old HP 600MHz laptop now for almost a month and am VERY impressed. It installed flawlessly, and all I had to do to watch commercial DVDs was to install the DVDCSS package. I've also got v2004.04 installed on an 800MHz HP laptop at work and am able to view our domain and our Citrix servers. I'm very impressed with MEPIS, just wish the current release supported SMP. I also need to take the time to figure out how to install with two hard drives (root and home), as I like to have the OS on a smaller hard drive and the home folder on a large hard drive. I tried the partition software in the installer and created the proper partitions, but it refused to use the secondary drive for the home folders.
