Abraham wants to upgrade his PC to Windows 95
Abraham wants to upgrade his PC to Windows 95. Isaac is incredulous. ‘Pop,’ he says, ‘you can’t run Windows 95 on your old, slow 386. Everyone knows that you need at least a fast 486 with a minimum of 16 megs of memory in order to multitask effectively with Windows 95.’ But Abraham, the man of faith, gazed calmly at his son and replied, ‘God will provide the RAM, my son’.
