I like TinyCore because it boots in a second or two in a VM, and the VM images can be really small. It's not really any help with RAM usage, if you run Firefox or Apache or the like it will chew up the RAM as usual.
For example, I have a Mint appliance that's about two gigs, while my Tinycore version is 200 megs. It's pretty nice to have that fallback when you have to retrieve it over the internet.
