I have a Dell Inspiron 8100 which is a 1 GHz PIII running XP, and I have
512 MB of RAM.
A virgin Squeak 3.4 gamma one image takes less than 1 second to start up on
this machine...
Interestingly, my default printer is a printer installed on my wife's
machine, and I am on a network at work right now, so that printer is
completely unavailable. I am using the old 3.4 VM that does not have the
patch Andreas mentioned.
Later,
Jon
