Office '98 for networked Windows won't run on 32 mg RAM.

The network administrator for our corporate intranet came by last week and upgraded the RAM on my PC to 64 mg. He told me that Office '98 needs 34 mg of RAM. Says that we have to upgrade everything or we won't be able to communicate with the outside world. Says that older versions of Word and Excel won't be compatible with the newer versions so we have to buy newer versions.

Hopefully faster PC clock speeds, and faster JAVA will give us a vaible alternative to the Windows. I don't know anybody who is happy buying Microsoft products.

Best Wishes for this Noble Effort,

Tom D
