I use Excel here under Windows 2.11; unfortunately, it quickly runs
out RAM with large spreadsheets.  Will the same problem exist under
Windows 3.0?  Or will Windows 3.0 handle large spreadsheets by 
swapping to disk?  I don't care if it's slow, as long as it doesn't
run out of memory.  I'm considering upgrading to Windows 3.0 and
buying Excel at home, and I want to know whether I should plan on 
buying more RAM at the same time.  (I know it will work FASTER
if I buy more RAM; my question is whether I NEED to buy more RAM).

If "right of the people" in the Second Amendment doesn't refer to an
individual right, what does it refer to in the First & Fourth Amendments?
You must be kidding!  No company would hold opinions like mine!
