fraz has a little shameless behaviour in the past
I've installed a usable version into a 1Gb partition on a lappy. Its a question of what you want to install, development stuff or basic apps such as web browsers office etc

Ive got the full KDE install on there plus some multimedia stuff (gimp,GTkam;kiconedit,xmms,kaudiocreator,xine etc)

Networking wise theres konquror or mozilla for browsing, gaim for instant messaging,tightvnc, havent bothered with office apps altho I have quite a few of the development libraries on there.

128Mb used as swap got around a128 Mb free on the linux partion (although it has access to the 3.0Gb free on the Windows partition



Footnote: Mandrake has an option to install as a virtual file system within an exisiting windows partition altho there is a performance hit.
