     Well, I have an 8 Mb '040 'station, and if you have everything on
the hard drive, it *seems* at least as snappy as 2.1.  Link a lot of stuff
to the CD-ROM, however, and it'll dog it down quite a bit.  For those of us
with 105 Mb drives though, it's an adequate compromise (IMHO, and if you're
not in a hurry :-).  Your mileage may vary, of course.
