</I>&gt;<i> &gt; You still miss the point that in Mageia community there are many users
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; that find 30-50e a _lot_ of money, and we dont want to shut them out.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Just because most people in Europe / US have better hardware, dont
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; expect all other in the community to have the same...
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> More, you exclude a lot of schools ( I mean for children not Universities)
</I>&gt;<i> which hardware is partially a little bit old ... And using Gnu/Linux in
</I>&gt;<i> school is very very important I think !
</I>
+100

Even in Europe there are many people using older hardware and I wouldn't want 
to exclude them just because of a minimalistic enhancement for the people with 
newer hardware.

Those with bleeding edge hardware can always use 64bit versions, which are 
better optimized.
