Quoting Bobbie Sellers (bliss-sf4ever at dslextreme.com):
> Question one: Are you using a 32 bit machine?
Several.
> Question two: How much RAM memory do you have in your computer?
2 GB in a 2005-era laptop,
512 MB in my 2000-era server,
128 MB in my oldest still-running laptop, a Sony VAIO PCG-505TX (Pentium
300 MHz MMX CPU) that I bought used in 1999
> Question two: part 1. More than three Gigabytes of memory?
Not any of those. But I have a couple of x86_64 laptops and a prototype
new x86_64 CompuLab server that have each 8GB. There are also a couple of
x86_64 Zotac mini-computers, ditto.
Really, as to 32-bit: Time to give it up. Also: Change over to
metric. ;->
> Are you interested in changing the operating system on your computer
> whether you use 32 bit or 64 bit machines?
Yep. All of them that aren't yet running Devuan will be, except for the
Sony, which is strictly a relic.
