Ha. I'm typing this on a laptop P166 with 80MB memory, with X, and xemacs. It's slow (I can't run internet banking, although firefox runs) Debian Unstable with a self-compiled 2.6 kernel. My firewall is a 486DX50 with 32M memory, but some of that is stolen by the BIOS. Also running a hand-tuned debian unstable, with a self-compiled 2.6 kernel, and the TIS firewall toolkit. (I compile kernels for the small boxen to get rid of modules I don't need --- in fact I don't compile modular kernels for these things, as then there's a whole heap of userspace I can do without, and neither has more than 1G disc) On salamander (the 486 firewall; no GUI here): $ free total used free sharedbuffers cached Mem: 21676 19296 2380 0956 8504 -/+ buffers/cache: 9836 11840 Swap:32592 6456 26136 30 BogoMIPS.
