256 MB RAM ?256 MB RAM ?Posted Nov 22, 2006 23:35 UTC (Wed) by xanni (subscriber, #361)In reply to: 256 MB RAM ? by mikov Parent article: More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld)
I have both desktop and laptop machines that still only have 256M RAM, and Ubuntu and especially Xubuntu run just fine. It's not enough RAM to run VMware, but apart from that it's really not limiting in any significant way. There are an enormous number of things you can do with a 256M RAM machine.

256 MB RAM ? Posted Nov 23, 2006 0:40 UTC (Thu) by mikov (subscriber, #33179) [Link] You are probably right, but the claim in the article that the PS3 istrumping high end desktops was an exaggeration to say the least. You could buy a desktop with 512 MB RAM and a 3.2 GHz CPU for about $300.
