The setup I use so I get a 'real desktop' not just old style X window
mangler is xfce for the desktop with the rox filer on top for the file
mangler, icon dock etc.

Its snappy in 24Mb. On an FPUless box build xfce with imlib not
gdk_pixbuf.

I'd guess it would be very nice on an ancient parisc box too because
they pa boxes probably have better I/O
