a180.pdf says A-class supports 2GB. And that's the "smallest" box HP
ships today and it won't be on the pricelist much longer. 712/100 only
supports 192MB. I don't know about 715's and older B/C-class systems.

I'm pretty sure all new workstations will support more than 4GB
(and run PA2.0). If we can do something now to port linux to those
boxes easier later, then I think we should.
