Hey, no argument there. As a matter of fact, it was pretty damn impressive. We had a site running 25 terminals on a 486/33 with 16MB, most of them running SBT. We had another one with only 4 terminals, but the owner used to run 12 (!!!) console sessions, with about 10 of them running SBT, and that 386/16 machine only had 6MB.

And don't worry, I wouldn't purposely touch any of that code again if I can help it. < g >
