I have a P90, 2MEG Diamond PCI video card,16 Megs RAM. Duke runs nicely 
under the shell on my system. I get 20-30 fps in 640x480 (average). I 
get maybe 5 more if I run in DOS mode, but its not noticable to me. RAM 
is the key. You'll need 16MEG to run stably under Win 95. (I'm sure 
there are exceptions.) BTW, I set up a batch file to run UNIVBE 5.1, 
then Duke on top, then unload VBE when Duke is done. I get about 10 more 
fps with UNIVBE running. You can get it from the 3D Realms page.

Please Reply and tell me if others have had similar experiences running 
this AWESOME game under Win95.

Cya, Scott
