  You might want to play around with using XY4 with the
bitstream fonts and *.dlg and *.mnu files removed. It worked fine
on my little Zeos subnotebook that way (8088 cpu at 4.74mhz and 1
meg of RAM, no HD or floppy, all loaded on a 1 meg PCMCIA card)
and seemed about as fast as XY3 on the same machine. I had to
edit the .kbd file to make some of the keys work that were lost
when I took out the .dlg files, but that wasn't too hard.
