Hi all, Just a quick query with regards to FreeBSD & Cyrix CPUs. I am looking at buying a (second-hand) PC with a Cx486 DX2-80 CPU. When I checked through the archives I found a post from Jordan saying: >> 4) Does FreeBSD support Cyrix processors? > > Yes, but I'd hardly recommend one! This was from early 1995. Is this advice still valid? (and, roughly speaking, why?) Should I keep looking? Cheers, -David Leask. -- Computer Laboratory, Cambridge University phone: +44 1223 334477 New Museums Site, Pembroke Street fax: +44 1223 334678 Cambridge CB2 3QG, UK email: david.leask@cl.cam.ac.uk
