[QUOTE="Brown Study, post: 419962, member: 3889"] Like watching any paint dry, it depends on the humidity. I ran Virtual PC for a while in my G3 350-megahertz blue-and white, running Windows 95. It was as slow as the reviews of the time said it would be: OK for nothing intensive if you've nothing better to do with your time. Games would run better on an Etch-a-Sketch. A G4 would be faster, but not by much, and a Windows OS more recent than 95 might erase even that advantage. [/QUOTE]
