>>This Pentium 150 with 16 megs of RAM just isn't going to cut it. Try bringing you current machine up to 64 meg of DRAM first. It's cheap, and your machine will work alot faster, especially since you have PC Quotes running. Then wait for either the 100Mhz bus machines early next year, or better yet the RDRAM machines late next year. Obviously, but Rambus stock first!

Hey, I didn't mean to imply everyone buys two new computers/year. Actually 'upgraded' would be more accurate for what I do. IMO the upgrade cycle is beginning to level off significantly, especially for home use. Intel has no real super-duper chips in the pipeline the near future. Intel's growth was slowing, even before the big SEA thing happened. If you only have 16MB memory, you might consider adding another 16MB for about $20 for a pretty good improvment in Windows 95 performance.
