You wouldn't say fine if saw it with 128/256MB of RAM.  Just ask

     I run X, xmms, a few xterms, windowmaker, sclient, licq, gaim,
and netscape on 32mb.  After ns has been running for awhile and has
chewed up 45mb of mem+swap it can get annoying if you hit a site
with a big java app, but as much as I bitch about it, all of that
runs just fine with only 32mb available.
