Hi, all,

A happy and prosperous New Year to you all.

I tried Star Office on Frankenstein-II (P133 in an original, vintage
PC-Clone box). It took over an hour and a half to install.

Double-clicking the desktop icon resulted in everything going s-l-o-o-o-o-w
for fifteen minutes, the frame for the window appeared, and then took
another eight to fill up with the Star-Office desktop. I couldn't get it to
do ANYTHING! (no clunky, there ;) Exit from the program took a further
twenty minutes.

Do you suppose I could do with some more memory for Frankie? <laughs> he's
only got 32Meg!

- On a serious note, SO 5.2 works fine on anything 300MHz and over, with
plenty RAM (64Meg bare minimum) - the only thing delaying my going over to
it is the (slightly) idiosyncratic attitude to databases' bits 'n' pieces
(queries, forms etc.) But, it's close - real close.

Regards,

Paul Ellison
