As a reluctant upgradee, I'll answer that. I am still running a 486 DX2 66
machine with 8 Meg of RAM and Win3.11. TS3.5 runs fine. Everyone tells me
4.0 will be much slower unless I upgrade the hardware, and they are probably
right. I do in fact
have 4.0 sittting in the closet, awaiting the point at which I buy new
machines. But the bottom line question to turn the tables is, this setup with
the machine and 3.5 is doing EVERYTHING I need it to. What do I gain by
upgrading???
