the lastest issue of PC Mag devotes quite a few pages on Windows 3.0, there're a few good trips. You may want want to check it out even if you don't plan to buy it.

Am I missing something? I run Windows 3.0 on a 12 MHz 286 with 2 meg of memory and a Herc; unbearable slowness is not at all the first thing that comes to mind. Okay, waiting for ATM to go through 50 fonts on a 65 ms hard disk is a bit of a delay, but that's not Windows. My theory is that those who have "unbearably slow" Windows machines haven't set them up correctly--wrong kind of memory, not enough, no cacheing, etc... Aaron Wallace
