I'm running a 2.4GHz Celeron with 512MB RAM and two 40GB, PATA disks. Right now I'm running both a GNOME and a KDE session, I've got Thunderbird and Evolution open, Firefox is running and running well, and I'm updating the my local copy of the FreeBSD repository. Oh yeah, I'm also running a DNS server, a Sendmail server, and SAMBA I can't believe how responsive everything is on this low-end machine I'm running. Wow! (And this with debugging turned on but no WITNESS or INVARIANTS turned on) Well time to rebuild the sources :) dwpc@ /home/duane>uname -a FreeBSD dwpc.dwlabs.ca 6.1-RC FreeBSD 6.1-RC #0: Fri Apr 28 18:41:15 ADT 2006 duane@dwpc.dwlabs.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DWPC-KERNEL i386 Best Regards, Duane Whitty -- duane@greenmeadow.ca
