True. But I found Linux far more superior in terms of being usable on
very old hardware.
There have been exceptions to that: About 10-12 years ago, GNOME (or at
least Nautlus) and KDE were *insanely* bloated to the pount of making
Win2k/XP seem ultra-lean.
Both KDE and Gnome UIs and apps using these Uis still feel very sluggish
to me on a modern machine. I don't get this feeling at all on Win7,
even on a much slower machine (my laptop for instance).
