73 MB of RAM, ouch
And not even continuous ram! The wii had 2 bits, 24MB fast memory ( mem1 ) and 64 MB of slower memory (mem2) haha
Please keep telling us Wii facts, this is important
Most of what i know is from year and years of working on the console and are found on wiibrew.org haha
Damn Small Linux can run a graphical desktop environment with as little as 16 MB of RAM (although 24 is recommended).
That really makes me want to see a Wii with a mouse and keyboard plugged in displaying a spreadsheet or something. Unfortunately DSL only supports x86. Theoretically it could be ported to PPC like Void Linux was, though I don't know if all the tweaks they did to make the kernel and pre-installed packages as small as possible would make that harder.
