Depends on what you mean by happy :) I don't think so, but I don't think windows 3.1 or os/2 run happily in 8 megs either.. I don't think it runs much different from win31 on a speed/ram plot. Are you not running X? Seems like 8megs would bog under X, but I know linux command line runs great even in 4.. >Can i get a floppy distribution of Win95? Sure, but if there's any way you can avoid it, do it! If you have the disk space, the nicest way is to get the cd, then get the files onto your 'pad anyway you can, tape, serial link, modem link (run overnight?) etc.. Then you can install from the harddrive, and you don't have to floppy swap 20 floppies (maybe it's just me, but I *hate* that.) This also lets you easily install/remove components for a while, when you're all set you can just delete the install files. As for whether you want to use win95 or os/2, that's a religeous issue.. I think your best bet is to try them both, they have their strengths and weaknesses. If you don't want to hassle with trying them both, I'd suggest finding someone that can show them both to you at least.
