Surely!
OpenSUSE/SuSE needs way more memory during install (live system + yast and 
no swap), but can run later with less memory.

Wow.

Er... I have SuSE 7.3 or on a Pentium 1 with 32 MiB (8.x would not 
install), and 6.4 or thereabouts on a 386SX with 5 MiB ram.

My P-I is quite ussable, as long as you don't attempt to browse a site 
with javascript. Staroffice runs well, but takes a minute to start.
