<PRE>I fully Agree.
I'm Brazilian. I see many peoples here that uses old PC's and notebooks with
simple configuration. I think that Mageia can have an version lite, however
not now. In the moment we must keep the focus on a single desktop version
(586) .

</I>><i>
</I>><i> You are seeing everything from a limited european POV, the P4 you say is
</I>><i> being thrown away here is a top-end system in some other countries.
</I>><i> Mageia is supposed to be for the whole world, not just EU/US/BRICs.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I don't want to deprive the fun of building a router or a firewall from an
</I>><i> old P133/64 with two ethernet cards, or some mediabox, but often you can't
</I>><i> (and sometimes you pay of energy power in a year much more than getting some
</I>><i> 30-50E linksys ARM linux based router. And when soemone try such kind of
</I>><i> attempts in the real world with your distro, will be very disappointed of
</I>><i> failures. That's why I in some way asked a survey of oldest hardware based
</I>><i> on own experiences.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I fully agree, At "first world" countries, Like Europe ones or USA, people
</I>><i> can buy the most recet PCS, but at "Thrird world" countries - Like Brazil,
</I>><i> what is part of BRIC, or many Africa nations - this is very unacessible by
</I>><i> population, even with government programs, like Brazil's "Computador para
</I>><i> Todos" (computer for everyone) that sells low-cost PCs with inferior
</I>><i> hardware, often leftover stock lines earlier from the U.S. and Europe. In
</I>><i> many department shops here, for example, Core2Duo is sold as if it were
</I>><i> the last flavor of the moment.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> If, where you are, Pentium I - 4 and 32-bit platform is a museum thing, in
</I>><i> most World parts, is not. I know people that, nowadays, uses a Pentium 200
</I>><i> with 64MB RAM as main computer.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Despite Mageia main target be current computers, we must think in these
</I>><i> people; 32-bit will not die anytime soon. Then: Do we need compile 32-bit
</I>><i> edition as i586 - and support Pentium and above, i686 - and support Pentium
</I>><i> Pro and above, or do a Mageia Lite edition?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> [PS: I did not break the thread this time, broke?]
