i386?




Hi,

Don't know if this will make it through your spam filter, or if you'll have the bandwidth to respond, but here goes.

Why doesn't the FreeBSD project support a 32bit intel architecture newer than 386?

Pretty much every PC in operation today is at least 686/athalon.

Wouldn't the architechtural improvements to the x86 architecture over the last 10 years provide performance improvements to FreeBDSD?

Just wondering, couldn't really find a forum to post such a question to.

Thank you for reading my email! And thank you for your hard work on the FreeBSD project!

And if you have just a minute to craft an answer, Thank you for your reply!

ciao...
