Yes, but I don't use the GTK2 version. And since 4.2 has mtpaint, I haven't felt compelled to use GIMP at all. As far as WINE and bringing over Windows applications, whatever floats your boat. I have Windows for strictly-Windows apps and prefer cross-platform apps like vim, scite, etc., that don't force me to make those kinds of decisions.

Add another frugal install to my list tonight:
- 500 MHz Celeron, 64MB RAM (laptop)

No, haven't tried GIMP with it. Wont, either (about to install ratpoison).

Now why would you not have the CDROM/USB and choose poorman over frugal?

Is ratpoison image manipulation software?  We're dying to get rid of GIMP over here.

No, ratpoison is a window manager oriented for people who hate using a mouse, touchpad, etc. You probably wouldn't like it since it has zero eye candy.

What sort of image manipulation do you need to do John?

Quite a lot can be done with mtpaint, xnview.uci or Imagemagick.uci - but I imagine you know that.
