NT 3.51 runs reliably on 486DX100 with 16MB and EIDE drive.  This is 
about the same config you need for Win 95.  As the cost of the board 
is $300 and cost price of 4Mb 72 pin SIMM is now only $100, the 
upgrade is pretty cheap.

Best benefit there are no  ???what are those Windows 3.1/95 thingies 
called???, GPFs!    :)
