I have tried quite a few distros like Linux Redhat 5.0 to 9.0, SUSE, Debian
,Knoppix and Mandrake. The old distros before 7.x was very responsive.
The new ones are not so
good. Take too much memory and hard disk space. This was the main reason
I changed OS to BSD.
I am currently using FreeBSD 4.5. I am not sure about FreeBSD 5.x
requirements but I am quite
positive a P100 Mhz with 16 MB ram can still run it smoothly. Linux is
still part of my life. Too many free
development in Linux.
