it's a funny but very old machine. however I managed to
replace a 32Mb ram by a spare 34Mo for a 76 total, it works
much better :-)

but my problem is two heads:

* It's used to apply an admin course. mostly all with
console. so ram is not really a problem (should not :-)

* I ask my students to have a donated PC or to buy one to be
able to experiment without fear. admin is not likely to be
safe on a production machine. Here, in France, and I beg
it's the same on all the industrialized countries, old PC
are sent to the trashcan. one can find testeds ones for as
less as $50, so buy one is not a problem. even it's a matter
of implication for my students, my course is pretty harsh,
not a toy, and asks for many hard work for users that, most
of the time, are pretty newbies. If they pay for hardware,
they may do the course :-)))

thanks
