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.
