Either Win95 is a damn site faster than 3.1, or you have a lot more patience than I have. Win3.1 on a 386 seems infinitely slower than my '030 running 7.1. }The 8088 and 80286 rather passe, so Windows 95, Windows 3.1, and os/2 2.x }and up don't run on it. Sorta like trying to run system 7.x on a 68000. If you put enough RAM in a 68000 machine, it'll run System 7 just fine. Dylan
