At the moment, I've only got access to the original Cyrix/NatSemi/AMD Geode
in the 200-266MHz class range.  But... I do have a slightly off topic
question.

If Sally can paint a house in 4 hours and John can paint a house in 6
hours...

No, seriously.  Given the .... 'target' of CentOS as a RHEL alternative, is
it necessarily appropriate to attempt to support such hardware ? While I can
understand some energy density benefits of running an LX800, I just
personally don't see it as fitting with the nature of CentOS.

Note: I'm pretty much just a quiet outsider and just a user for the most
part... so my opinion carries no weight.
