<<Just tried this today on the NT systems at school. I was using a Pentium/90, and it was slow as a hog. It was leaving window outlines all over the screen, and then cleaning them up later.>>
I wouldn't judge computers at schools too much. Most of the time, they are so loaded with extra stuff, it make any computer slow. The PowerMacs at school are slow, but I think that's because they don't have Speed Doubler & have a lot of non-native extensions.
I'd like to see a properly configured Windows 95 machine. From what I've seen, my little 7200 seems blazing fast when compared to most PC and even the PowerMacs at school.
