Thanks for the antiX I ve visited the site. About i386 like I ve read Microdoft and Intel following the agreements are going to develop special CPUs, DSPs,..for the customers. So Linux free community won t have access to the internal code anymore in the future. That s why Ubuntu versions are labeled amd64... It is a bit insidious politics invented by business professionals to get rid off with the amateurs-Linux concurence. To achieve the goal claiming their products are faster, safer, more reliable etc. Following www.ti.com - Texas Instruments company, they produce their 32 or 64-bit architecture chips for Linux environments as well. At home I own Atari 1024ST. It is a 16-bit architecture device based on Motorolla 68000 CPU and the company of chips on the motherboard. I was collected money to buy it for almost a year and more, payed a prof. to solder additional RAM onto existed in the case....A firend gave me another the sameone as a gift actually a waste. I never plug it ON cos it s a history. Beside all this I wonder how powerfull company Microsoft actually is, according there have been 18000 people lost a job and another 6k are waiting to become unemployed. Regards!
