*Any* EISA bus machine should be capable of this. 

We've got a Compaq SystemPro with 40 meg of RAM. It's a file server,
but we ran a few tests before installing Netware.

An awful lot of software freaks when you have more than 16 meg of RAM.
We couldn't get Windows 3 to run until we installed a 24 meg RAMdisk
in config.sys...
