128 MB RAM, what results to expect?
ashardin:
Thanks for the replies guys. That is about what I was thinking, but wanted to put it out to the forum.
If I can run 95% of the games on this machine, I'll be more than happy. I'm hoping NEO GEO won't be a problem, but I've run those on a 600 mhz machine before. Midway games will be interesting, but I think the processor is there to support it.
I saw this thing and thought it would be perfect for MAME, good processor, small HD (big enough to fit an OS and all roms though) and 128 MB of RAM. We'll see how it goes.

Neo Geo games won't be a problem at all. In fact, they run better than Capcom's fighters. I don't get half the amount of sound glitches in a Neo Geo game as I do in a Capcom fighter. I'd say you can easily accomplish the 95% goal with that system.

Nervous:
Win98 and ME will be fine with 128. Upgrade to 256 if using 2000 or XP.
The processor speed should be plenty to run those Neo Geo games (I run a 1.4 Ghz system).
