I run Linux on my laptop with 32MB and it's not really ideal, lots of swap space used, rather slow. I'd like to upgrade but ram for my old laptop costs a fortune. I run icewm or blackbox on my laptop. ram right now is rather cheap. I got a 256MB dimm for $30 from crucial.com for my desktop. Those older machines will be more expensive, but hopefully still reasonable. Matt _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
