Running with 3.2 on the IBM SCSI w/Ultra Wide Controller and a 350 chip--it's instantaneous. On the IDE where it resides now (Too lazy to install on the new SCSI to date) Corel 8.0 is not so much slower compared to the SCSI that it really counts for much. Oh. I'm running 64Meg Ram w/250 /swap or so. Word to the wise: When installing Corel WP 8.0, do so in _graphic_ mode _only_. The command line/text install script was written by idiots.
