Is it?  My Debian Stable machine, with GUI and a few small frills,
weighs in at about 393 MB.  My Debian Unstable machine with tons of
extra stuff (database with data, boatloads of perl modules, kernel
source code, other development stuff, Enlightenment window manager)
takes up 1.7 GB.

Compare to a plain-vanilla, "recommended" install of Windows 2000
with no extra applications, at 1.8 GB.
