Yes, precisely. From your figures, 64MB machines are just right for 2.1.x
kernels at the moment which is quite reasonable, but if we could get this
fixed for 8MB boxes - 46% attrition rate isn't good - [which most 386s
usually have], then I think everyone would be a lot happier with that.

I don't know if there are anyone still using 4MB boxes with 2.1.x kernels
- anyone else care to speak up?

Cheers,
Alex.
