Good for you. I have had systems run KDE miserably on 196Meg with 4 or 8 Meg Video Ram. I have NOT encountered a system that did not run KDE acceptably with 256Meg or more. Hence the statement I made. It's a subjective observation and there could always be the exception. It's also personal opinion as what "Run Well" would mean. A system with only 128 Meg SHARING memory with a GPU, might NOT run well. I have seen many people try to boot Knoppix with KDE on a system that would be borderline with a desktop like iceWM. They can get it to run, but it is SLOW and not running acceptably. It could also cause an unusually long boot time.
