mdz

I've run a system with the recommended minimum ram of 384 for live cd.
Using mem=384M as recommended by cjwatson.

The system is slow but usable.

Fire fox is a killer

pre firefox

Post firefox

the system nearly died of shock opening OO.o

Matt what would help me is to know how you got you results so I can get a real 
metric with yours.  I will chase this up with you tomorrow though and some 
fresh tests.
