Well, my roommate ran '95 on his 386DX/33 with 8 megs of RAM about the same
speed that OS/2 3.0 ran on my Pentium/60 with 8 megs of RAM.  Whatever you
do, don't run it on 4 megs, but that holds true for even regular windows
nowadays.

And the best part is that you don't have to configure anything 99% of the
time, unlike OS/2.  If you have a protected mode DOS game with it's own sound
driver, it *will* work under '95.  How many people are still trying to get
sound to work with Doom under OS/2, Including id software?
