Fear not! Most of the processor-hungry portions of the application are in the
intro portions and the video demos that are included in the prefixes to the
actual code generation. I've installed mine on a 486 machine, and I disabled
all the intro stuff. Works fine, but I wouldn't recommend it. I'm sure it
will run on a P-90, yet slowly. But, the point here is, only the non-important
stuff runs slowly. Actual robotic code generation works quite well on my 486,
and yours should be even better. I'm satisfied, but a processor upgrade is
worth the wait.
Santa's on the right track! Enjoy!
