Run XFCE4, not Gnome or KDE. That will save you a *lot* of memory which
your system can use for other things.
Disable any services you don't absolutely need after the installation.
FC3 runs more stuff by default than you will need on an
older box.
For casual browsing on old hardware, you might want to install dillo in
addition to firefox/mozilla. See
