Unless you're talking about Win98, 95 or

the 286 class that run Netscape (older version) under Windows 3.11 and
have 4 mb of ram on a fair sized hard disk (120mb). They're also PS/2's
to boot.
Hey, you're right. Maybe you ought to hold a seminar on how to make 286's
useful so these centers can get some use out of it.
That's the story I got from one recycler. And it seems to be the rule
with all the recyclers I know of.
