I've got a Celeron 2.88 GHz with 256 MB PC2700 DDR RAM, 7200 RPM 40 GB disk, so my hardware is quite all right :-)
Though I am quite surprised that I can still browse, use GAIM, use XMMS and reading my mail all the time without any form of lag. If I got a 100% CPU load on my other Windows box then I can hardly do anything anymore. Another reason why I love FreeBSD :-) Cheers, Jorn On Thursday 29 January 2004 22:04, you wrote: > On Thu, Jan 29, 2004 at 09:40:03PM +0100, Jorn Argelo wrote: > > I'm currently building JDK14 from the ports tree (/usr/ports/java/jdk14) > > on FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE.
