    ... not because of itself, I don't actually use it. Its that they now can release less than 1 kernel every few months.

    When I used Linux for about a month a while back I remember when they would release a kernel and by the time it was compiled and installed, the next one was out.

    You're not sure if recompiling the kernel for 486 actually helps, yet you recommend it? And then you say the same for glibc?? Reality check... its not going to hurt, but it won't make much of a difference either. Slashdot needs an "Uninformative" rating for posts like yours.
