X will run fine. no need to skimp, just keep it simple. don't do a big
fancy 24bit colour background. don't run a zillion gnome-panel applets
and drag-and-drop layers.
netscape always runs slow. it will run even slower. text browsers in
an xterm work fine. links (not lynx) supports mouse, etc if that
improves it any.
