- Hi,
-
- If you'd *only* use gcc for Minix, what would you do with all those
- fine ppl still using '86 and '286? Huh?
- Minix still runs on those machines, and I like it.
- Why would you want to shut out a lot of ppl? I think there are still a
- lot of students using 80[02]86 machines, and they're happy with it,
- they can try to write new fs's, mm's and whatever.
- Why be egoistic and shut all of those ppl out? They do sometimes
- provide good stuff.
-
- Please stop this discussion, I'm about sick of it.
- If you want to use only gcc, will you please send me a 386/40 board with
- just 1Mb ram? Everything else I can get mysel, but the motherboard is
- still too expensive for me.
