Word 6.0.1 will run on a 4mb 68040 Mac however you need to free up as much
memory as possible. Try to disable extensions and control panels that
are not necessary for Word, like Quicktime, Easy Open, GX. Set your cache
in the Memory control panel to 32k and don't use the ram disk. System
7.1 requires less memory so you may find that it works better than
7.5. I know that Word runs very nicely when the Mac has 8mb which is not
much RAM these days so you should consider adding another simm. The
update patch is for PowerMacs only.
