In my experience Daryl very few users of “old” machines are doing anything new like PHP so it is a moot point.

Also since you can load Zend community edition or some other PHP package on a Mac/Linux/Windows box and still access DB2 and call programs etc. I see little need to actually run PHP on older systems anyway.
