Since large amounts of data are loaded for the animated graphics youshould run DemoGraphics "94 on a fast 486 or Pentium PC with optimizedMS-Windows installation (SMARTDRIVE!, 32-bit file access) -- o
otherwisethe program (especially the table module) will be very slow. It shouldalso be run as a single application because otherwise WINDOWS might start swapping data to the disk. DemoGraphics "94 can
