You can pare the kernel down to the bare minimum, like-wise with services; caveat emptor here is that if you want "advanced" services functionality, you end up doing it yourself, but that's part of the fun. As has already been mentioned, running a lighter weight window manager makes a _huge_ difference. I'm very happy with fluxbox, but have been known to still fire up fvwm2 from time to time. -- Brian D. Ropers-Huilman
