There's a difference between going out of our way to cater to this
use group and not putting artificial barriers in the way. I'm not
saying that we need to build, effectively, two different versions of
Fedora Core. I am saying that we should not take a father-knows-best
attitude and put up artificial barriers. So we shouldn't put lots
of work into it, but if something is easy to do to enable technical
experimentation with hardware, it's at *least* worth considering.
Then build an i386 kernel; there, there's something that can be
done without lots of work. But if you really want to do it right,
it *will* be lots of work, some of it directly counter to other
goals of the project.
