  12. I share Alex Nemirovsky's question.  I'm considering a DECpc 433 which has
  13. local bus on board I/O and accelerated local bus video (framebuffer type
  14. unknown).  These appear to be fast, well-made machines.  Does Linux have
  15. a prayer of working?  As always, "some assembly required" is expected outside
  16. the kernel.
