It all depends what you want to do with it...it's the applications you
run that take up most of the memory.  128MB is a bit on the small side
if you're going to be doing memory-heavy desktop work (e.g. running
mozilla, KDE, etc), but there are plenty of lighter-weight
alternatives to those applications.
