Owwwww. And I forgot PS/2 from the list.


I reckon I can run with this one, if no-one objects.
>From /usr/src/linux/arch on a 2.4 kernel here are the architectures:

alpha  arm  cris  i386	ia64  m68k  mips  mips64  parisc  ppc  s390 
s390x  sh	sparc  sparc64



I reckon we can get most of these - anyone got a spare HP workstation,
or an IBM mainframe they can cart down :-)


The big problem will be monitors I suppose - and space, if this idiot
idea ever takes off.
