Heh.  Like I said, 144 on a P150 does me fine.  And that's the most I've
had it on... I'm also running NT 4 workstation in 124MB (the VM has 60 of
that) on another machine, and it's running at normal speed.

BTW, it's worth noting that it runs a *lot* faster if you've got it in full
screen mode instead of windowed.  If you're running it on your local X
server, it should just show up maximized on the first free virtual console,
and you can use the regular ctrl-alt-f<#> keys to switch.
