Re: DOS vs 95




     I have heard many many people saying that E/D runs faster under
DOS than under Windows 95... I have no idea why, but the exact opposite
is true for me.  Under DOS, the emulator runs annoyingly slowly, but under 
Windows 95, it's actually quantifiably faster than the Mac IIsi I am using\
to type in this message.\

     Perhaps it's the way Windows 95 is set up to run E/D, or my system
specs, but I have notably better performance under 95 than under DOS.
If anyone would like, I could post or send benchmark info.

Here are my system specs (only mediocre at best)

     100MHz i486-DX4
     16 Meg RAM (only 6 of which are available for applzone when running
                 under 95)
     2 Gig total HD capacity
     SoftRAM (which doesn't help DOS based apps, and actually has little\
              effect overall on anything!)
     VESA version 1.2 (find no advantage in UNIVBE)
