- I wouldn't expect it to run in only 4 MB. Everything else is probably
- workable, assuming you have a CD-ROM drive. I understand that there
- are people out there who have run the Beta in 8 MB and it is A DOG.

- I'm curious. Why would you buy a 486-50 and only give it 4 MB of
- memory? What can your run decently in 4 MB of memory that needs that
- kind of speed?
