   Hey Christian!   
      
    CV> 386SX33.  It could run Linux but was hell slow :D   
      
   Sounds very familiar except I already had the 386 booting to whatever version   
   of dos with a 32-bit gcc port (djgpp).  I opted for a dual boot system on   
   there and bought a 486-33 for a pure Slackware 3.something-or-other install.    
   That became my first linux hacking machine and was awesome in comparison to   
   the 386.  Next was a 486 Toshiba laptop whose graphics chip (Chips &   
   Technology) put up a fight at first.  A new custom compiled kernel fixed that   
   nicely.
