Can't tell you about the freebsd version, but my personal favour for a slim and really fast GUI is enlightenment... from my knowledge it's designed and tested for machines of this power (I read a note by one of the main developer that he's testing it on a 150MHz to see if it performs). it's a little playtime to setup it up, since you can configure almost everything. but it's really neet, has some nice eye-candy and is fast too... my absolute favorite and it boosted my productivity (after 2 weeks of configuring&customizing) to a level no other GUI in this world can give me... but just my 2 cents ;-)) greetz olli
