Good point; I'd forgotten to mention RAM limits.  Window manager comments below are right on.

I have an ancient Gateway 486 with 20M of RAM (and a 120M hard drive).  I managed to shoehorn a floppy-install of a slightly less ancient version of slackware into it (even including an X).  That done, df says I have about 3% of the disk space remaining.
