Re: Designer/2000: system requirements for Workstation?

Hi,

[Quoted] I completely forgot. I am currently working with Designer/2000 v1.3.2, but [Quoted] [Quoted] we are going to migrate to version 6 or 6i. Minimum system demands according to Oracle, are 256Mb RAM and a Pentium 166MHz, but I think that above all the processor should really be better...
