Subject: Latest opinion on cpu speed and strength gained for older DOS programs

Hello, this is with reference in particular to the older DOS programs like MCP8,
HIARCS 7 Genius 5, Rebel series, etc. which are still some of my favorite
programs.  I play them on a DOS OS computer that is old P200 64 Mb RAM.  If I
buy another used pc just with a DOS OS (DOS 5 or 6.22), say P3 500 with 128-256
RAM will I notice a significant increase in the performance of these programs?
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
Gerald
