- IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTE:
-
- Mandrake is built with CPU speed optimizations for Pentium-class
- (Pentium(tm) and compatibles, AMD K6, Cyrix M2, PIII...) so it WILL NOT RUN
- on older i386 and i486 based computers. However, a special version compiled
- for those CPUs will be available for download from our servers and on cheap
- CD-Roms.
