If it makes you feel better, I've been running NT for two years now on a
486DX33 with 16MB of RAM. From the release of NT 3.1 (actually, I started
out with the March beta), NT 3.5 a year later and now 3.51. Every new version
of NT have increased performance, so it's safe to say that a Pentium is not
the entry level machine for NT... I'll be upgrading to a Pentium-120 soon
though.
