486? 20MB ram? That's what i call "clunkers-of-yore hardware" .lol.
I just said that because i see people around me buying CPUs with a million GHz 
clock and some Terabytes ram, complaining that windoze2000 is slow :-)

Hey, if you build gentoo on your ZX, i'll try it on my VIC20  :-D
(the ZX had an accident many years ago .cry.)

see ya alll
