Let's also factor in flavors like Lubuntu that aim to use very minimal
resources and that have the ability to run with ~ 300 MB of RAM on an
i386 machine. While I understand modern applications are removing i386
support, we have a nice application base for Lubuntu for both LXDE and
LXQt that provides a minimal but yet functional desktop environment and
we have people to maintain these applications.
That is probably a reasonable solution. I don't use these old machines
as GP computers and usually have just a command line login and the
ability
to do a remote xterm. A logger does not need (in fact counter-indicates)
a fancy graphic human interface. CLI is what matters.
In the case of the i386 VM's, it's a matter of qemu/kvm continuing their
support.
