SI requires double the RAM MAX does as a minimum and also it requires a
much faster CPU as the minimum.
MAX runs fine with a P75 and 32megs under NT, and this would be about
the same for Lightwave under NT. LW would need a little less RAM as a
minimum but NT eats 20megs by itself. As for CPU, I don't think anyone
would run LW under NT with less than a P75.
