I'm not sure about happily.
I think 12-16mb is more realistic if you want good response.
Also, 16mb is the MINIMUM with networking... I've got a laptop IBM 486/75
which will soon run either WarpConnect or Warp4... but it's limited to 24
mb of memory.
WfW 3.11 works pretty well in it with TCP/IP networking enabled, but the
newer Warp4 may be a bit slow with the load and less than 32mb...
especially if you need to run Netscape Communicator or IE under it.
