At various times, MICROS~1 has RECOMMENDED a DX and faster speed, but
Win95 can't tell the difference.
Win95 WILL run
on a 12MHz 386SX. But it needs more than 4M RAM if you
I see. I never tried it on
my sisters 386sx-25, since I thought the DX
was a requirement. I did try Win 3.1 on my old 286-12, with about 1-1.5
megs of memory. It
was so slow, it took it a few minutes to finish crashing :-)
One informal benchmark for reliability has often been "how long it will
run before crashing". MICROS~1 has achieved a new way to improve their
numbers on that!
