I don't mind paying for something that a. is useful, b. works and c. is
fairly priced.
The website claims that Vector Linux has a KDE that has been adapted to
low memory environments.
This got my attention; I have an old Compaq Presario I upgraded with a
K6-III+ CPU, but can only use 192 MB of RAM.
I'll give Vector a try, after I recover from paying my property taxes. :-(
