Re: slow woes

[Chris Conrad]

I run a P4 1.5 with 256k of  PC133 SDRAM and WinXP....the command line this
is my work computer and it is used everyday......I average about
5-6hrs/WU...I also have a PIV 1.6 with 256k of DDR RAM and Win2k it averages
about 3hrs/WU and I also have a P3 1ghz with 512K of memory dual boot of XP
and Win2k on Win2k it averages about 8-9 hrs per unit...on XP it averages
about 12-13 hrs per unit....I think if you run the command line it is alot
easier on the machine...than the Graphic version......
