Our dear friend Paul Harvey took his G3 powerbook to the NY short course. He was running VirtualPC 2 and it was faster than the sufisticated systems they used on the Middlesex Uni. Robert said that coursed by a unknown reason the systems run slower than they should. Paul was running 3D studio Max on his G3 at a great speet and without any trouble.
