Yeah ... but with openSUSE it comes in a color I like out of the box. :)

I've been able to run Gnome just fine in my 512 MB laptop, but it's
much snappier with WindowMaker. I liked XFCE 4.2 but 4.4 is a bit
"heavy" for me. :) But I think I'm going to put Fedora on the 512 just
so I have a Fedora machine to play with. I'm doing a lot of stuff
these days that needs to work on Ubuntu, Fedora and openSUSE, and it
helps to have all of them available.
