How times have changed!

In 1996 someone challenged me to run GNU/Linux with X, Emacs and
TeX/Xdvi on a 486 with 4MB of RAM. The challenger lost!

I know that is not the same as OO or FF. Both of these use memory in a
way that makes one wonder why people had those nasty acronyms for
Emacs (for example, Eight Megabytes And Constantly Swapping).

Still, I suspect that a 128 MB RAM machine which is used only for FF
and OO should work just fine as long as one does not enable all the
whizz-bangs of the GNOME/KDE interface as well.

Regards,

Kapil.
