OK folks, all have a seat please. I ran a full blown KDE on a 133Mhz machine with 256Mbs of ram. A friend if mine played Solitaire on it and it worked well. It even had sound on it. Yea, it took a while to boot but I told him this is Linux, just leave it running 24/7. Worked until the house burned down. Close your mouths, you are catching flies. LOL Dale :-) :-)
