Such a claim is FALSE. My 700MHz PentiumIII with 384MB RAM runs Fedora 11 just fine. OpenOffice is eminently usable, for example. It's a 2001 laptop that has only CD-ROM and USB1.1, and the BIOS cannot boot from USB. I have added USB2.0 via PCMCIA card, and somewhere around Fedora 12 could boot from external DVD via USB2.0 (via trampoline from the harddrive) because the PCMCIA drivers for the bridge that enables the USB2.0 card were in the initrd. But then the PCMCIA drivers were dropped from initrd, so it no longer boots newer Fedora from DVD. Meanwhile deteriorating support for RagePro graphics has nudged me back to Fedora 11. Fedora 11 is only 3 years old. -- -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
