Not according to what came up on the Red Hat list yesterday they don't (and
that was an employee saying that...) - though there seemed to be a bit
confusion about this toopic. Check the archive at www.moongroup.com.
But 4.2 should be usable on small machines - I've been using it for quite a
while on a 486DX2/66, 8MB desktop machine - with X and XEmacs. Painfully
slow, but at the time I didn't have much choice... :-} Any extra MB will
definitely come in handy.
Cheerio,
Thomas
