a 533 should be more than enough, how much memory (and video memory) does the system have? what are you trying to run on it?

If I remember, it only has 2Meg of video, and total ram is 192Meg. It has a 6G hard drive. The laptop is a Compaq Presario 1200 model. I've thought about lighter weight window manager...

192 with Gnome might act a bit sluggish, take a look at fvwm (the link I provided has RPM packages for Fedora), I personally prefer FVWM 1.24, to FVWM2 but its because the config file is much easier, in FVWM2 you dont really need the config file..
