I was joking that it would take 3 weeks to buildworld on my slow AMD K6/300. I have receievd 6 or more replies stating to the effect "It doesn't take three weeks, it took two days on my 386/25" or "it only took 30 hours on my 486/66". I guess I got an answer to another question, which I didn't ask. There really are many people keeping old (ancient) hardware alive with a little demon. - Mike Hogsett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
