What are you on Matej?  Even if were worth considering, where can you find a
copy of Windows 98 easily?  You definitely can't download one!!!

Stick with Linux, x-window-core and any number of lightweight window managers.
One of the lightest is twm (`the window manager') which  comes with
x-window-core.  Not many people use twm though because it is _so_ basic.

Do a quick google for 'window manager linux' and you'll soon find your way.

I've heard icewwm is fast and light but with enough features to keep you interested.
