Maybe you can get X & VNC in 5Mb (I'm doubtful) but you don't have any apps
yet. Things like control panel (which requires 1Mb python and 1Mb Tk/Tcl) or
Linuxconf-X (add a bunch more libraries). Any gnome-ish app is going to require
imlib, gtk, sml, etc... Then when the app starts you've got to throw all those
libraries into RAM (he said 16Mb) without effecting performance of the boxes
services. Snowballs chance, IMHO.

He wants to run a vnc **server** on the "little" box.
An drop-in replacement widget library that spoke RFB natively instead of X would
be pretty neat, but it doesn't exists yet, and (not being an expert on RFB) may
not even be possible.
