Subject:Word 7: Is it a hog? From:Steven Jong <SteveJong -at- AOL -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 1 Oct 1996 19:59:46 -0400
(I hope this post is sufficiently interesting even though it's
tool-oriented... 8^)
We are slowly upgrading the PCs in our department. We moved to Windows 95;
now we seem to need Word 7 (for RoboHELP 95). But the hardware is still a
486.
The question is: Is Word 7 such a resource hog that we have to scratch for a
Pentium-class machine? Or can we reasonably hope to use the software on
the machines we've got? Money's tight... 8^(
