I dont know whats up with vger but some mails are getting queued for some
or another reason, this mail for instance arrived here after all the replys
to it, anyway, like i said KDE will do fine, maxwell i think was suggested
as a wordprocesser, i have not used it much but is is very nice indeed.

I see no problem as to your reqiurments.
Having said that i have only run maxwell on a 64Meg machine, but
considering the way linux uses swap space i rather think there still should
be no problem.
