The way I here it is that X can run on nicely on a i386/i486 with as 
little as 4mb system ram (a stock FreeBSD 5.2.1 system wont boot with 
anything less then i486/16MB, I could be wrong on this btw) and that it 
is the Window manager, programs, etc that eat up all the resources.

I have X with xfce4 running nicely on a PPro 233, 150MB ram, 8MB ATI card:
