Why will you have more memory to play with ?
Because you had to buy more just to run Linux ?

Well, that's nice, but should it really take a re-write for another OS
to trigger a bug hunt ?
Sorry, I'm not cranky. But I have been looking for a Linux distri that
I could consider trying and so far, they are all worse than Windows as
far as bloat goes. And not trivial to get running either.
The friendliest one found so far is Redhat and although they say a usable
system can be a 100Mhz '486 with 16Mb ram, they recommend a 133Mhz Pentium
with 32 Mb ram and 500Mb MINIMUM disk space. :(((
