I probably should give them to the Salvation army, but.... I get to the "extracting bin into / directory" progress bar and it hangs at about 4%. With my limited experience, I still suspect the CPU is the cause of the hang. This one had a primitive Win98 on it. I guess the primary question is, "What is the minimum processor speed required to run FreeBSD ?"
