What is the Best and most importantly easiest linux distro for an older computer?

I have an old Dell, with 933 mhz processor, 128MB Ram, 20GB hardrive, and a CD burner. What is the best linux distro for this computer? It currently runs Windows 2000 pro. For hoots, I tried running Windows XP on it, but it was too slow. I think the 128MB or ram is what really holds the computer back, but only my parents use it, and theres not much sense in upgrading it at this point. I want to set up a dual boot on it so I can start learning linux with out fear of messing up my current computer. My warmest and sincerest thanks to all!!
