I no longer run Gentoo on my Pentium IBM laptop - let's face it with 72M RA=
M=20
even fluxbox was a bit sluggish!  Ha!

I do however run it on my 1998 vintage Pentium 3 laptop and before that on =
a=20
Pentium 3 Coppermine.  KDE is sluggish and rebuilding KDE takes a day or so=
=2E =20
That's why I don't run a full KDE ...  ;p  Only some KDE apps on e17.
