Something like .36 would probably be good. You're right about on the edge spec-wise on where .36 and .55 work out really well, so I'm sure you'll be able to run most .36 games on it. If not, there is always Vantage. |

I'd put Win98-SE on that PII, run an older MAME and see how it does. I ran a PI for a while and was relatively happy. I'm sure you'll be fine. |
