First of all, thank you very much to all that answered my question.

It is no discovery, I continously change the computer. Right now searching
for an old one that do not consume much electricity. The best is a Siemens
with a celeron, 800mhz, the whole machine consumes 32w when idle, but goes
to 42w or more when I do a little thing like starting the browser. The one
with the sempron consuems 42w when idle, but is more stable: perhaps is the
power supply the consuming part.

There is another reason to use i386: Linux compatibility. I like to use
opera browser.

Rod.
