Latex is slim and efficient,
worth a try!

I still find it incredible that it's withstood the bloat of everything else, although it did go through a big upheval for LaTeX 2e with the addition of (*gasp*) fonts ;-)

When I started to use it, I was using Sun3 workstations - 16MHz 68000 processors with 4MB of RAM. (Although we did have a big shared server for doing additional jobs on - it has 16MB)
