Subject: Re: debian
Well, Mepis installed before so I suppose that I'll put it back on and put
things on it that are best for a low memory (29788KB)/slow CPU (150 MHZ)
system. That means I should install.... what?..... Icebox wm. Well, I don't
know if I need to go that low. I mean, like, kde runs (though it is slow) so
perhaps gnome would be a good choice. What else do you think I should run on
this box?
