Hello David - 

DD>>> The minimum machine we've installed it on at work is a
DD>>> C666 (with 302MB RAM). It runs fine (along with Office
DD>>> XP). 

CA>> At this point in time I would say that any OS that _can't_

DD> Not just the OS, the Office app too. XP will install ok in
DD> 128 (minus that shared to the video card) but Office is
DD> s---l---o---w.
