Well, that serves to show that you probably have  not used OS/2 in
less than 16 Mbytes. I am running a 386/33Mhz and 8 MBytes of RAM
and the response is good. Of course when I try to run AMIPRO it will
swap like hell but even with the networking on, it works very good.

OS/2 runs well in 8 Mbytes, what about NT ?
