@Greg: I would have of course been happy to disagree agree with this
satement but Neils is right...
I boot up my "old beige G3" this morning to run an old "MkLinux DR3"
with WMaker & GNUstep... Thoses Good Old Days! ;-)

@Neils:A great thank you for the link itself but also for what's in the
box! Already using vagrant/aegir with Drupal, I enjoyed to successfuly
run a "gnustep up" ;-)

Thanks again
