For some folks with older machines, 6.2 is as high as it goes. Ever install
7.1 on a 486? This fellow is in Brazil -- and may not have even a Pentium,
for all we know.

PostgreSQL 7.1.x, for the record, runs (well, it jogs at least) on even an
old 486DX4-100 I had RH 6.2 installed on (48MB RAM). (That machine went on
the mission field....)
