RedHat 8.0 Thumbs Up

[JJ Watson]

I have been running RedHat 8.0 for a couple of days now on a P3 800, originally I had 192 MB ram, 
but this RedHat is apparently a memory hog, works great when I bumped up to 512.

<P>what type of system is everyone running redhat x on?  I have an amd
500 w/384m ram and 80gig hd.  The command line, obviously runs great,
however, the gui is quite slow.  I am fairly new to linux, about 2
years experience, but I would think an amd 500 with over 256m
memory should run a little smoother.</P>
<P>any hints, tips, tricks or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.</P>
<P>Thx,</P>
