En ligne avec Thor 2.6a.
I installed 7.6.1 on my Color Classic too.  It has 6mb ram now, and no FPU
yet. Things really slowed down when I installed the Appearance extention and
control panel. But now the GUI is OS8ish! ;) That little creep is so cute,
I'll probably leave instructions to have it made my urn. It'll hold my ashes,
and still continue to function as a computer ;)
