Also, how much memory does that stuff require?

Athlon 2000 XP+
768MB PC2100 RAM
Radeon 9600

Is that enough to use wine/and whatever that "kde" and "gnome" stuff is?

So many questions.. =]

Also Deach: what should I not do?

For Knoppix, it was just right click and open with Wine. More than likely it's the same for others.

I think you could do that. If you did you would need a boot loader though, such as LILO.

I think that would be enough for KDE or Gnome. KDE worked for me though, and my computer is a lot slower than yours.
