There are actually several versions of BMDP, depending on CPU and amount
of RAM.  If you have at least an 8088 or 8086 you can use BMDP PC-90.
If you have at least an 80286 there is BMDP 286/extended (takes advantage of 
extended memory).  If you have at least an 80386 and at least 3MB of extended
memory and a math coprocessor, then you can use BMDP 386/Dynamic.  
386/Dynamic will use up to 16MB of extended memory.  Call BMDP at
(213) 479-7799 (Pacific time) for more particulars regarding memory
requirements and math coprocessor requirements.  Also, they have a pretty
good site license deal, as I recall.  As you can imagine with the right
hardware, 386/Dynamic is a very powerful stats package for the PC.
