I had 2.1.95 running on a SMP system without any problems. After 24 hours
without any problems I installed the 2.1.96 pre-patch and it is working
for 3 hours without any problems. I was compiling several programs(gimp,
binutils 2.9) without any problems. I have a Tyan S1692D(2*PII 233Mhz,
128MB Ram) with an IDE hard disk and cdrom(I know IDE is not so good and
I would have prefered SCSI but it is a school and I am a student and they
gave me a computer to use).

Recession is when your neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you
lose your job. These economic downturns are very difficult to predict,
but sophisticated econometric modeling houses like Data Resources and
Chase Econometrics have successfully predicted 14 of the last 3
recessions.
