Re: Comments: Minimum PC H/W to run Oracle Developer 2000?

Doug,

I am running the whole Dev2k set on a Pentium Pro 200 with 32 Mb of internal mem and a 4 Gb HD. It runs 'great', meaning it performs without any frustrations. For the database I am using Personal Oracle 7.2. Repository generation takes about 2-3 hours, do it by the book and it will perform well. The whole Des2k, Dev2k and Repository will cost you about 1 Gb.
