 I have two old 486DX100 laptops with 16 meg ram I have running
 Win 98.

 I have a Compaq Armada 1750 PIII 600mhz with 256mb running WinME
 lite.

 I have a Toshiba 3110 PII 300mhz with 64 meg running WinME lite.

 The only real advantage I find to ME lite is the drivers for usb
 drives are built in.

 I have an old something I can't even remember Pnothing 133mhz
 with I don't recall how much ram running Win 98.

 All of them run dos quite well. I run dos on my Dell Dimension
 4400 P4 1800Ghz 1.5gig ram XP SP3 Pro.

 I am doing this entry on it, using Silver Xpress dos version. Do
 my up/downloads on it using Wildcat navigator.

 Hell, never even learned to use a spread sheet until a few year
 ago, would write a dos program for any complicated calculations.

 Oh, and after I do the calcs on my spreadsheet, I still use a
 dos program to make graphs from them.

 Oh, and I have rom dos and DRDos. Rom dos has PCMCIA drivers, at
 least one version I have does, and I believe DrDos does also.
