For starters, most of the Linux programs will be using shared memory. Yes, they do end up using the same parts of memory, and it all counts towards that program's memory usage. Secondly, most of the memory usage is disk cache. In reality, I'd be surprised if all the Linux programs' (for a normal desktop) memory usage added up to 60 megs....
Um, I'm using KDE on a 300mhz PII, (as I'm compiling KDE 3.2), and I didn't notice any slowdown.... after I switched the theme from RedHat's Bluecurve(simple looking, but a severe system hog) to KDE's default-Keramik....

The anti-US propanda floating around is more orwellian than current US policy.
I thought the only way for the US to be more Orwellian would be to change the name to Oceania, take in Britian, declare that we have always been at war with (Eastasia xor Eurasia), and to declare that War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, and that Ignorance is Strength, in accordance with the policies of ingsoc....

Net Geeks
There's no need to feel guilt
I said Net Geeks
For the software you built
I said Net Geeks
Cause you're not in the wrong
There's no need to feel unhappy!
Net Geeks
You can burn a CD

I think he would be refering to a little-obeyed portion of the U.S. Constitution, known as the Bill of Rights....
Why, use that relationship to tar xzf the competitor instead, of course!
