is it? My Ben Nanonote came with jlime (OE based, not Debian) 
which used Xorg and matchbox with no issues, and it only has 32 MB
of RAM (and no swap).

I've used laptops with 128 MB RAM with Xorg, LXDE and a 
modern debian distribution (I believe it was squeeze, but it may have
been lenny); running iceweasel started to become painful, but 
it was still usable.

I suspect that the pain is coming from somewhere else, not simply xorg.
