of 32-bit machines I intended to make into my lab, but the Linux
community seems to have moved on to 64-bit images.
If the microprocessors you have were built this decade, they probably
support PAE in which case CentOS 6 should run just fine. I am in the
process of [slowly] phasing out 8..12 yrs old machines which still run
quite happily CentOS5 and I am deploying C6 on their replacements.
In other news, the new procs have much lower power consumption so beyond
offering access to a larger set of applications, new systems pay
themselves via saved energy
