Greetings,

I've got NetBSD 1.2 serving as a router and mailserver for a little home
network of four other Macs.  Currently, I have NetBSD running on a Mac IIx
with 8 megs RAM.  I could give that machine to one of my housemates, and
instead use a Mac IIsi with 9 megs of RAM for NetBSD.  Can anybody tell me
if NetBSD will be significantly happier on one machine rather than the
other?  I gather the IIx has an FPU, which the IIsi lacks, but the IIsi's
got the extra meg of RAM and the extra 4MHz clock speed.

Thanks,

-Bill
