I have a 486 33mhz, with 8M RAM. Oracle 7 with Forms 4.5 is a DOG. It is not usable. The harddrive continuously runs. It takes about 5 minutes for the designor to just start. I can run the Othello demo without the database running, but that is about it. Guess it is time for more memory. Received on Fri Feb 10 1995 - 17:30:35 CET
