Here in any case. Anyway, there are 386 PC's which simply can't store more RAM or which have 4 * 1 MB and would need 4 * 4 MB, costing $ 50 (in my country). It would be nice if these old PC's were usable, esp. for people to try FreeBSD. You cannot, of course, sacrifice anything useful for that reason. It would be nice though, if possible.
