Unity needs graphic acceleration. Of course it does not work on something like that. Use Lubuntu and it will work just fine.
XP on such machine is not responsive. Maybe it could be usable, if you uninstall half of operating system, and replace most programs (IE with Opera 12.X....). Or better is to use Win2k.
No! Lightweight Linux distro, is your best bet to revive such junk today.
EDIT: fixed typo; I restored a few netbooks in EE, but whatever.
