 PB> Hi there!
 LR> How much RAM do you recommend?
 GG> 1 gigabyte.  If you can afford it.    If not, "enough".
 PB> I run Maximus on DOS, and am curious how much memory is needed to run

It depends on what you're doing.  If you aren't running any doors and you're
not tossing mail in the background, 1 or 2 megs will probably do fine.  I
don't see much use for more memory under DOS/DesqView since they're mostly
using low memory anyway.

If you have a Pentium board with 4 SIMM sockets, it's probably 128 megs.  It
altogether depends on your motherboard.  If you're thinking of using more 
han
a couple megs, you probably will need to go to another operating system to
make full use of your memory.
