(I have lesser boxes but they run > OpenBSD now). In fact, as a result of reading this thread, today I installed squeeze on a 1998 vintage P266 laptop which also has 64MB of RAM. So far I have IceWM running and have installed Iceweasel, which although sluggish to load, seems to work fine once it is up and running. I might try Midori, which is available in unstable and see if it is an improvement. So it can be done but a bit more RAM would no doubt make a huge difference. -- Bob Cox.
