I still have a PC104 386 with 4Mb RAM/2Mb flash HD sitting in the
cupboard. A few years ago I did some minor code modifications on a DOS web
server I wrote and the guy who requested them sent me a free board as a
thankyou! Unfortunately 4Mb isn't enough to even boot FreeBSD, and I'm not
really sure how useful a 386 would be these days...

I guess I could always run DOS on it.

Cheers.
