That certainly can't help.

Another problem (for me, anyway) is that I only 24Meg of memory and a
486DX4100.  With a fast Pentium and a lot more memory, it would probably
load a lot faster.

Also, I was playing with the statically linked version of the program,
which is simply enormous. 

It's still kind of a neat program.  I might start using it regularly if
I get a real printer.  There isn't an NX-1000 printer driver yet :-)
