“Only” 8MB. Oh, you sweet summer child. I remember when 8MB seemed like so much of an upgrade from my previous computer, which had 256k. And the one with 256k had a full hurricane tracker running on it.
How many colors? Why that hurricane tracker could display a glorious 16 colors at a time! And an astounding 64000 pixels! And if I borrowed my friend's modem, we could dial up the local Sears to get the latest storm info at a blazing 300baud! Truly, it was an amazing machine.
At one point I was running BeOS on a Pentium 75 with 16MB RAM, later upgraded to a K6-2 266 with 128MB. Those machines, particularly the K6-2, felt faster than anything else I've ever used, and was better at certain things than any other computer I've ever used.

With how many colors, what resolution, and how many features?

Old enough to remember when that was a good amount of RAM for a PC.
Eight megabytes and continuously swapping. ;)
Weird that we used to have to use paging memory but Windows still felt way faster back then.
