M$ on a P 150 you must be kiding , thats why I put linux on it. It started
as an test bed and it worked so well I pressed it into service as it works
fine for what its used for. I use it for making store sings with
applixware. Nothing realy powerfull on it so Ihavent though of upgrading it
yet. I can even run word Perfect Office 2000 on it. Worperfect is a little
slugish but very usable , and paradox is a wee bit more slugish. I still
want to try applixdata on it then make a fianl decision as to which will
stay on it.
