- I don't think mine is faster in WIN95, I would say they are about the
- same. I think that most of peoples problems with Executor or other DOS
- programs (when run in windows) is that they need more RAM. On my
- 486DX2-66 with 8 megs everything was slower in WIN95. On my P90 with
- 16 megs there really is NO difference. I know it is faster than my
- friends Perfoma 550 with 5 megs.
