75 MHz and 16 MBytes RAM isn't all that unrealistic for a 1994 PC but it would be quite bleeding edge. The first Pentium was released in 1993 at 60 and 66Mhz, and the successor P54C came out in 1994 with 75, 90 and 100Mhz.
By the end of the decade there was already the Pentium III at 800 MHz (it's actually quite amazing how fast hardware progressed in the 90's compared to today):

- flohofwoe 3y ago...the same can most likely be said about any 5 year period since computers were invented though, doesn't change the fact that the 90s saw a particularly radical hardware progress.
