Date: 1 Jun 94 10:08:28 MDT Message-ID: <1994Jun1.100829.4451@hellgate.utah.edu> Originator: moore@defmacro.cs.utah.edu Reply-To: moore%defmacro.cs.utah.edu@cs.utah.edu (Tim Moore) Lines: 18 I'm looking into buying a Pentium-based system with the following specs: 90Mhz Pentium. Motherboard has 2 PCI, 4ISA, 1 shared, Neptune chipset. Matrox PCI video controller. BusLogic PCI SCSI controller. 1.06Gig SCSI disk. Does anyone have any experience with similar systems, or know of reasons why this system wouldn't work with FreeBSD or NetBSD and XFree86? Thanks, -- Tim Moore moore@cs.utah.edu {bellcore,hplabs}!utah-cs!moore "Wind in my hair - Shifting and drifting - Mechanical music - Adrenaline surge" - Rush
