I have
- 2 Atom N270 based netbooks w/ 2GB RAM
These have aes, sse, sse2.
- 1 Pentium III w/ 512 MB RAM
This one has sse, but doesn't have pae nor sse2. So far, it had
seen all Fedora releases having ever been released.
In general,
- I'd like to see Fedora to continue supporting all HW it has
supported until now, to avoid Fedora loosing users, who already are
using Fedora.
- Conversely, I do not see much sense in adding older CPUs, because
these users are unlikely to have run Fedora.
- Though I would feel a little grumpy about it and would consider this
to be a strategic management short sightedness, I do have not much of
a problem in Fedora dropping support for the Pentium III (i.e.
non-aes/non-sse2 CPUs).
