I did some beta testing a few versions back for TS-5. I ran it with
real-time data from BMI and was running on a Pentium 120 with only 32 Meg
Ram (the only machine I had available for beta at the time). Even though
this machine did not even come close to the minimum specs suggested for
TS-5, I had none of the problems that I saw re-posted here from MB. I know
that later versions were much better and faster than the ones that I tested,
but I didn't have time to follow up with them.
He mentioned system crashes and he was also touting an over-clocked 300Mhz
Celeron set-up here a while back. The over-clocked Celerons are notorious
for not being able to run Win-95/98 and NT without serious crashes due to
over-heating of the CPU. Assuming any of MBs comments were valid (a serious
stretch by anyone's imagination), he is probably running a cock-roached
version of one of the early betas and nothing close to the final release--
which is not yet out.
Rather than asking questions based on speculation that nobody has the
information to answer, a better question might be why anyone here would be
foolish to listen to MB?
