Excellent comment about rack-mounted equipment. Never-the-less, to throw-away (or recycle) working equipment seems to me to be a pity - but that is the reality. Hopefully ? there is a Linux capable of providing conventional facilities on old, but working, 32-bit desktop and portable equipment which could be given to the needy people. Hmm, I wonder when 128-bit processors will appear :-) -- Regards, Paul.
