I've got a 286 in my closet. Is there a branch of linux that works on older x86 chips? I am not sure why i would even want to get it working. It would just be another unused node in my dan (dining-room area network). If not linux, do any of the *bsd's work with older computers?
Does MP3.com have a reasonable buisness plan? How do they plan on making money? It seems like a very good site, but I do not believe that selling ad space alone justifies the market's response to their IPO. I may be missing something, but this seems to be a case of people jumping blindly at a.com stock.
For linux to be accepted on the desktop it needs a few things and quality games is one of them. It is great if linux can serve web pages, but very few computers are used for that. I am very willing to pay for good software.

It is nearly impossible for an individual to get in on an IPO. A good source of information on stocks and IPOs is Quote.com
