How: Starting with a net install, install the packages one by one, check dependencies, replace with alternative packages if available, then configure and theme like Xubuntu.

168? Hard to believe. But free seems to give different results than htop or ps_mem.py (which both differ from each other too). It's not much compared to a) Xubuntu or b) gnome or kde this way or the other.
I for one am done with anything related to Ubuntu. I don't even want to go in the details what they fucked this time anymore. It did big harm and keeps doing so and will keep doing so in the future too. But, as the saying is, to each his own.
