Re: [TCLUG:12618] using VMWare

[Amy Tebbe <atebbe@real-time.com>]

I'd recommend more memory.  I tried running it with 128MB and it was painfully
slow.  Now I run vmware on a P2 400 with 384MB and it works pretty well.
You can also tune the amount of memory vmware allocates to Win95 (mine is
set to 128).
