I agree, boxes like this are not the norm. Many people today consider a
K6-2 350 to be a "low-end" machine. You can't continually build to the
lowest common denominator without stifling progress.

I tried it (once) on an AMD 5x86/133. Not good :p

It is. I suppose that my point was that Ogg is not _yet_ a solution for all
machines, and is impractical (though not unusable) on truly low end
machines.
