Longhorn?

--- Quote from: Put_lead_in_gates_head ---i got XP to run pretty good on my brothers old K-6 233 MHz w/512 KB L-2 cache, 96 MB of SIMM ram. It actually booted faster than my old P3 800 MHz with win98 with 300 MB ram. I got win95 to run good on a Pentium 100 with 16 MB of ram, same with win98,

Why do I doubt this?
Lead Head:
it was 320 MB or ram and it was a dell Demension L800r. Now my brother's pc has 128 MB ram. Anyways the Dell's HD was kind of cheap.It is dead now
Kjartan:
SuSe quick? BwAHAHAH!
SuSe has got to be the most CPU/RAM hogging distro I have come across. We have a family machine, 400mhz +/- 128mb ram I think. And it ... well it didn't. It took ages to boot and even to log in. Slackware was a dream however, went like a crazy train (on tracks). :)
WMD:
SuSE a hog? Hmmm. I did an FTP install of 9.2 onto an Athlon XP 2000+ with 128MB (120MB really, shared video)...the CPU is good but that ram isn't...but it was still fast. The hard drive churned sometimes but it wasn't bad at all.
piratePenguin:
I tried SuSE personal edition (can't remember the version. It was about 6 months ago) on my XP Athlon 2400+, 256mb ram, and it was pretty slow. Mandrake was better on the same machine.
SuSE seems like, all bloated up ...
And it didn't have gcc either, so I couldn't compile isdn4k-utils to get on the net (and couldn't download the binaries either) :( So I went back to slack!
