Well, there aren't official packages AFAIK, but, for instance, I have a reasonably well-made package of lame 3.86beta and I intend to send upstream some of the modifications I've made... But I'd really love to see an MP3 encoder in Debian. On the other hand, we now have Vorbis (players, plugins for XMMS and encoders) on woody, so the situation is alleviated. But still, MP3s are the de facto standard and I'd love to contribute back to the community as a Debian Developer (I'm not one).

Anyway, its MP3 section is definitely superior to the alternatives.

Unfortunately, I have no experience here with older processors as my computer is a Pentium MMX 200 (overclocked to 250), so it is quite fast and I wouldn't see the perfomance problems (that's a downside of having a reasonably fast computer).

I'm using two boxes here, one with potato and another (my guinea pig) with woody.

I also noticed that that if I used apt-get autoclean, it would delete some packages that apt had just downloaded (from security.debian.org, perhaps? I can't remember).
