Just for clarification, I assume when you say "still used" that implies
getting updated to new kernels rather than just running the old BSPs,
right?
What are the typical distro release cycles for those machines
you list: do you move from one LTS kernel to the next each year,
or are they getting more sporadic over time?
Do you expect the machines with the lowest memory such as the
32MB digsy to stop getting kernel updates before the others?
