[Mageia-dev] i686 must be Pentium II ?

[André Machado]

Guys,

Mandriva - and many other distros, such like Arch Linux - are optimized to i686 architeture, what means Pentium II. Despite the need to keep compatibility with older machines, what would be the problem if packages was compiled aganist Pentium III or 4? Would the system gain more speed?
