In the frozen tundra of the Northeast US (New England) I can only max out my machine at 2GB ram (DDR Pentium 4). Running LXDE + Terminology w/ 10k scroll buffer + chromium-browser (or bsu when i'm bored) + tmux + vim = heavy swappage. >:| I'm thinking about switching my desktop environment to Ratpoison so I can stay in hard memory. Either that or shit-can Terminology for lxterminal. Don't get me wrong, I love e17 and Terminology but it's too expensive for me to run at the moment (wallet + memory wise). I miss the good ole' days of e16 with gkrellm. My GPU was more expensive than my rig. (VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV35 [GeForce FX 5900] (rev a1)) -- woooh doggy. Anyway, keep up the fantastic coding. Love you guys and everything you stand for.
