I must work very hard to live... I must prepare my own CyberCenter
project to promote "GNU/Linux" in Morocco...

OK, but what new projects ?

Oh yes, how many ilegal copies of Windows exist in Iraq and the rest
of the arabic world ? 1 million two or three ?  There are very less
people which know GNU/Linux...

Oh yes, "The Chef" of my new country know it already...

I have all papers for Maroc, but now I am missing some money to go to
it... fxxx!

I will try to let the people know what GNU/Linux is
and I NEED Arabeyes and Arabbix !

I need a HDD installable version which works on 366 MHz Computers :-/

I have tried the Current version, but it sucks on 366MHz Computers
with 256 MB of memory. Can it be done MUCH MORE LITE ?

Curently I do not know, where I can get PC100/133 modules for the
Mainboards of many of my freinds in Morocco, which have not the
money like me or maybe you... New Modules are environent 15 Euro at 
<http://www.ldlc.fr/> which has around the same prices as Germany :-)
