I was just helping a friend configure Win3.0 to run on his
Zenith 386SX. Boy, is it slooowww... The Zenith is running
at 16MHz and has 1MB of memory installed. I'd like to hear
from others running Win3.0 on an SX: how much memory do you
have installed and does Windows run at an acceptable speed.
My friend's machine seems to be swapping a lot, but, before I
recommend that he go out and fill up his empty memory slots
I'd like to get an idea of how much of an improvement extra
memory will provide. Thanks in advance. (Direct or followup
replies are ok).

Sal.
