[texhax] LaTeX in old computer

[Philip Taylor (Webmaster)]

I seem to recall running TeX (not LaTeX, but the load
would be only a little greater) on 386-based PCs.
There was no problem (emTeX was the system of choice),
and although things ran slower than they do today, that
was about the only difference.
