The CM9000 GUI does not require significantly more *CPU* resources than the
CM8000 GUI. However, it does require more memory. So, if your 266MHz box has
128MB of RAM (at an absolute minimum), then, yes, you should be able to run the
program.

The overall performance of the GUI might be a little sluggish, but it shouldn't
be noticeably worse than it would be with CM8000.
