Edubuntu Lite?

Thanks for a great distro! I really like Edubuntu and I've installed Dapper
to my old Sony laptop so my kids can play around with it. The only problem
is that even though my laptop meets the "minimum" stand-alone workstation
requirements (it's a P3 500MHz with 192MB RAM, 9GB HD, and 128-bit/3MB
graphics), Edubuntu seems to really bog the laptop down. The mouse cursor
movement is very herky jerky and menu items respond very slowly. Can I
reconfigure Edubuntu to "lighten it up"? Perhaps remove certain
non-essential packages? Change video drivers? Or should I consider
downloading Xubuntu instead and make it into a  "Edubuntu/Xubuntu" hybrid?
Thanks.

Jim
