> I tried 2000 on a 486 with 64MB. It installed and ran fine without crashing, except for the unholy slowness. I suspect the CPU and ancient HD were bigger culprits than the 64MB though. It would install because the minimum requirements were 32MB. But the published recommended requirements were 128MB. > 1280x1024 was pretty good on a 17" or 19" back then - 1024x768 felt a bit lores on a 19". Yeah, in hindsight I think i was running 1280x1024
