: I have an AMD386-40 with 387-40 and I have had no problems.  It doesn't 
: really seem to affect speed at all though.

By this I assume you did try it both ways.

May I ask, what screen size and resolution are you using?  I am at two 
clicks above the smallest with high-res (I don't even consider low-res an 
option) and get reasonable performance - not glass-smooth but acceptable.

The reason I ask is, someone awhile back said they were getting smooth 
movement at two clicks below full-screen on a 386/387-40.  If that's 
really the case I must have something configured incorrectly.

Ahh, I've got CPU envy.

Thanks,
