And we're able to boot in 16M with pulse enabled. ;)
Production ISO images happily run clients with 24M RAM.

32M is a synonim for "Pentium MMX" largely, while 
16M is a synonim for "Pentium".

And for us, it's solid "enough", twice the minimum.

The reason is not purism or bare minimalism but the fact that
there are enough systems of that age still alive in schools,
and our implementation is sorta leading the pack in Russian pilot.

With swap of course. (led@ had to fix it though)

Just in case someone is curious, current school build here:
ftp://ftp.linux.kiev.ua/pub/Linux/ALT/beta/school/terminal/

Still it's heading to become obsolete pretty fast this week. :)
