- 2MB is marginal at best for the type of applications you are running. I don't
- think you will regret it if you get it up to least 4MB. I have a COMPAQ
- Contura 3/25c with 8MB and 120 HD and it runs Windows applications at a
- user-perceived speed comparable to my 12MB DELL 486D/33 Desktop PC at work.
