As a kid, I thought the Escom Greymate (486SX, 25 MHz, 4 MB RAM) couldn’t run Jazz Jackrabbit or Windows 95. I tried both and failed.
Now, with today’s knowledge, I wonder if I could make them work. At least on paper, the machine meets the minimum requirements for both. #retrocomputing

Looking at the POST screen though, it reports “640K Base Memory, 3072K Extended”. So it’s actually less than 4 MB. Could that have been the culprit? #retrocomputing
