  12. I have a reasonable PC:
  13.  
  14. 20MHz 386sx
  15. 4Mb RAM
  16. 200Mb HD
  17. VGA
  18.  
  19. Is this good enough for LINUX, or do I need more RAM/disk space/power?
  20.  
  21. I would be looking at getting Xwindows going on it, and I dread to think how
  22. much resource that would take.
  23.  
  24. Thanks
