In any Office program, go to Help About and click the System Info
button.

For a less extensive listing, go to Start Run and type

cmd /k systeminfo

I guess I read that differently. I thought the instructor was telling him
that the system he was to build must meet the specs for Word.

I have the answer to that.. a laptop running a Pentium MMX (200 MHz) with 64
MB RAM.. touch typists beware though.. more than 30 words per minute and
Word is playing catchup..

Anyone who can type more than 3 wpm blows me away. Darned keys are so close
together and most of them are in some strange location!

I just meant that the keys on a laptop are physically too close. But for the
next two days it's all I'm going to have.
