Super cool that they got it going. Glad they had it maxed out with 64MiB of RAM. I'd like to see what was going on that takes it 10 minutes to get to a login shell. Is it swapping?

Very unimpressive...and has no real world application, but does set a high water mark for a complete waist of time. D'oh! Losers working backwards...no? Maybe if we get old tech enough we could go back to the moon. Smells of full retard if you ask me, and shows an attempt at people farm programing and management. Distract they did, yes?
