[ltp] "Light" applications for a laptop

[Luis Lebron]

I am currently running RedHat 9 on a 770  thinkpad (233Mhz, 96Mb ram).  
Eventhough it works certain applications  are  extremely  slow.  For 
example, it  takes  a very long time to start  OpenOffice,  Jedit, or 
Quanta. I am looking  for  suggestion  on  applications that  would work 
better on an older system. For example, I have found TED 
(http://www.nllgg.nl/Ted/)  and Nedit are quite responsive.

Any other suggestions?


thanks,

Luis
