What is the minimum requirements of a computer to run linux? I was hoping to

YOu certainly won't be able to run a desktop environment on a machine like

You should be able to run a command-line environment.
I'm not sure how well speech synthesis would work on such a system, you
might need some speech hardware.
And getting audio output to work on a systemthat old can be a bit
interesting.
good luck!
