I'm posting this from within KNOPPIX, an easy-to-try Linux distro (if you have the bandwidth). Simply download the 700MB ISO and burn to/run from bootable cd. [via c't magazine]

huphtur wrote on 2003/01/02:: whats this mean then:
20 MB of RAM for text mode, at least 96 MB for graphics mode with KDE (at least 128 MB of RAM is recommended to use the various office products),

Tuuur wrote on 2003/01/02:: @huphtur: text only mode is comparable to the dosbox: so a command prompt where only a Norton Commander-like shell is possible. Graphics mode is linux with a minimal X window-system (comparable to the M$ Windows interface); and if you actually want to _do_ something with it you need 128MB of ram. RAM is not harddisk space, it's your computer's memory.
