there's nothing wrong with a 386 running win3.1 i
think the min requirements
for windont95 is 386dx-40 and 8meg.
[this has little to do with what's "REASONABLE"]
SX will work.
-40? Speed doesn't matter at all, other than trying to be "REASONABLE"
billg said that 95 would work with 4M, but I was never able to run
anything but "safe mode" (I have an NEC VERSA 486 that rejects memory
expansion)
OTOH, with 3.1, a 6MHz IBM AT (286) works nicely for printing invoices,
etc.
I always find it very annoying when documentation writers don't understand
the difference between "minimum required" and "minimum recommended".
For
95, I would generally not recommend less than 20M with at least 75MHz
Pentium. And preferably more and faster.
