Phil - I wasn't actually asking what it was. It was a joke because the name is funny.

Rofl, sounds a bit iffy, and NO I'm not going to click on the link, because the options make people who don't know it, clueless at best.

Phil, I'm running it right now on a computer with 128mb. As I type this, I am on Ubuntu w/ a computer that has 128mb. It will run fine, but you have to use the alternate text installer due to low RAM.
