Hi all,

	Sorry, I dont know if this is a FAQ so please bear with me...
   I was wondering if running BSD on a 486 with 8 meg of ram on a
   pc in my home is feasible(ie. not too many bugs). I have heard
   mixed reviews about the bugginess of BSD. I would be doing simple
   things such as running X-windows, writting small programs for 
   school(and trying to compile them :)), and other things cs students
   do. Any help is appreciated, please reply in personal mail 

thanks in advance
	Paul
