Hi there.  We currently have about 8 computers hooked into a Novell 3.11
network.  The server is a 486/66 and the (windows) workstations are 386/33's
or better.  We wish to optimize Windows 3.1 for this environment, and I'm
looking for people's suggestions and experiences regarding making a decision
of how to install Windows.  Microsoft recommends either (1) all files on each
workstation, (2) system files on the server, personal files on the workstation,
and (3) all files on the server with subdirectories for each workstation.
I've read Microsoft's standard explanation of the pro's and cons, so I'm
looking more for specific and/or experience-based suggestions.

Any input regarding this situation would be greatly appreciated!!, but
please respond via mail!
