: For me personally  Win95 is enough for me.  I'd like to run NT 4.0 soon..and 
: I'd like to have the hardware to as well.  I mean come on that "FULL DRAG" 
: feature is orgasmic in itself.  And those spiffy Screen savers :)

This is old stuff for X windows, FVWM has had this for years. (My video card
is too slow for anything bigger than 30% though. Oh for a PCI Diamond Stealth
.... NOT.)

: I think the indication of howm uch of a hardware hog NT is, is this simple 
: statement "Your system only has ONE pentium processor. Do you want to 
: continue?" :) This was a message from NT 3.51 on install of a DEC celebris XL 
: P100 16mb.  I was like "ONLY one pentium? sheez."

What??????? Are you kidding????? A pentium with 16Mb running Linux is my Dream machine.
Are you saying this is entry level for NT? I mean one of these can run rings round
£3,000 SParc machines.
