pretty much anything you can run Linux on will work. I've personally run
ecasound on old 486 machines, as well as on a old H3600 iPaq, which has a
206Mhz arm9 cpu, and 32MB of memory (performance-wise close to an old
486). Biggest technical problem is lack floating-point support on many
embedded systems (like the iPaq) - ecasound will still work, but
will consume more CPU than it should.
