Replying to a message of R.j. Woods to Enos:
RW> It runs fine on my AMD 486DX2 80, with 16 megs. I don't see why soo
RW> many people can't run it?
Not everyone can afford 16 megs RAM. And, relating this to the topic of this
echo, you can't really "pirate" RAM, just steal it outright.
In addition, I would say that the average existing PC nowadays is a 486DX33
w/ 8MB RAM (maybe less). Anything less than 16MB RAM will cause a good deal
of swapping, which tends to slow performance. This applies, of course, to
both Win95 and OS/2.
RW> Maybe they just don't know how to install it.
You're very naive to cite this as a reason.
