-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Dear M[sr]. Lawson
I just upgraded from a 386DX-25 on which I'd been running Linux (Debian 0.96R6) with no problem. I had 4 MB RAM and an aged RLL hard drive (100 MB). X would run, but so slowly that I didn't bother with it (but I also had a non-accelerated ISA video card with a whole 512 kbyte RAM). It wasn't a screamer, but I found it acceptable for TeX, mail, and occasional hacking. Other reports say that with more RAM (>= 8 MB), even X is OK. I had to upgrade because it wouldn't run my 5-year-old daughter's educational games :-). Hope this helps. - -- Sincerely yours, Max Hyre **>> What's all this garbage at the bottom of my message?
