Yeah, everyone points to resources, but I mean with no apps open I use about 2GB of RAM and a whopping 15GB of disk space on a fairly fresh install on a weak little mini PC. I love when things use less, but in the grand scheme of things 2GB of RAM is beyond trivial and resource wise it pales in comparison to Windows.
It wasn't that long ago that relatively pricey computers didn't even have the expansion slots to allow 2GB of RAM to be installed. KDE used to run just fine on those computers, once you disabled Nepomuk.

tell me about it. I can barely run ark on windows, but on fedora, I can run it with reasonably good graphics settings.
