Ah, hmm. I guess it's possible that decade-old machines are less reliable and overrepresented in crash reports, but who knows :-) It might become reasonable at some point to just go ahead and put up binaries (ideally with some check so that they fail in a human-readable way), and see how many people email us. If it's too many we can always take the wheels down again. -n -- Nathaniel J.
