*** The point is not that people buy 386 or 486 systems today - although I
bought a A5 486DX-66 Fujitsu portable recently - the point is, that people
do install Linux on older equipment. I allready run the Mandrake 6 distrib
and I'm glad Red Hat allows me to install the latest kernel and updates on
my Fujitsu; which Mandrake doesn't.
