This makes no sense. I do not recall the amount of RAM I had on my 486DX50 but whatever version of office it had at the time ran just fine. JavaScript was not even born by then. But when first ever versions of JavaScript were released their execution speed were molasses comparatively to native applications. I know it first hand as I was developing native and web and in browser applications since 94 even before JavaScript (I used Netscape's server push functionality for that). When Java was released and until it matured to decent enough JIT it was the same slow resource hog (again know it first hand).
- pjmlp 6y agoBorn by when? When 486 was released? Naturally not, however not everyone was wealthy to be buying last generation Pentiums.
- FpUser 6y agoI do not quite understand what you're trying to say here. Many are / were not wealthy to buy any computer at all back then. I was born long before 486.
- pjmlp 6y agoMy first computer was a Timex 2068, I was born long before IBM even cared about home computers, if you want to go down that route.
