Now, I disagree with you about this.  I ran NTWS v4.0 on a 755CE
486DX4/40MB/2.1GB working with Micro Focus and DB2/NT software as well as
Eudora, Netscape or IE, Notes, Office, and FreeAgent on a T/R network.  Not
as fast as it is on the 760EL with 32MB I have now, but it was adequate.
On some occasions, I'd get too much going at one time and have to stop and
wait for it to catch up.   But most of the time it just chugged along fine.

On a 755CS with only 20MB, though, it's a slug, so I agree with you that
the 750 and 20MB will be really painful.
