NOTES:
    Please bear in mind that our published minimum requirements are based on 
    a test system that was reasonably optimized for performance (without a lot
    of overhead). A typical "casual home user" will often be unwilling to run 
    as 'lean' a system, so in-home performance may be compromised to some
    extent.
 
    We recommend using minimum requirements as a starting point, but faster 
    systems will provide better results. Other applications, especially games,
    may have higher system requirements. Refer to the applications documention
    for details. 

    Windows 98 or Millennium are no longer supported by Microsoft, therefore, 
    VTB cannot offer support for these old Windows platforms.
