Which unix version...

Old 386s are not for today's modern day operating systems and applications. Personally, I throw Pentiums under 300 MHZ in the trash can (except notebooks). The same for HDs under 5 GB. Good, fast hardware is so cheap, why waste your time on worthless hardware? Use a Pentium at a minumum with a few Gigs of space, would be my bare minimum.

Note:
Yes, I know PxT does not like me to throw these in the trash for environmental reasons. However, these are technical discussions, not environmental ones
Environmental discussions reserved for off-forum discussion.</EM>
The fact of the matter is that old 386s are worth less than the shipping charges. I travel often to less developed countries; people don't use 386 technology there either !
