lol, I've not got the link still up, but it does seem to have been a request from OEM's that ubuntu kernel now detects 3+GB RAM as default with 10.10, instead of requiring an internet link up to do so, from what I saw, the PAE is now the default. This may also be part of the dropping pre i686 chipsets, I guess you can dig through the UDS blogs to get more information (that's where I got my snippets). Whilst this is more appilcable to 'ubuntu', for the small over head it does kinda make sense for them to switch to it as the default. As to row with i585, I guess that's down to how many people scream and shout. Regards, Phill.
