Even if your computer can run this package on its own, you'll still need the added reverb plugins and a sequencer capable of pulling it all together, so you need to keep that in mind as well - just because you can run the samples themselves, doesn't necessarily mean you can make practical use of them.
And yes, you can upgrade to get more ensembles, but then you're looking at a LOT more harddrive space and even more performance hits, so you have to be very careful.
In your case, if you can't run EW's libraries (are you sure that not even Silver will run?) then you should probably be looking at GPO after all.

Well the main problem with EWQLSO is that I don't have a fast enough processor. My processor is currently 1.8Ghz, I'm planning to upgrade my RAM from 1GB to 2GB so RAM isn't the problem. It's all the processor. I've gotten mixed opinions on whether it will run. I asked on a computer forum and they said according to system requirements Silver will run, but then they said on the soundsonline forum that it won't run. I'm only planning to use one sample at a time, so what do you think? I know some libraries allow you to have say, a french horn ensemble, a violin ensemble, and a trombone ensemble all open at once, but I only plan to do one ensemble/instrument at a time.
I guess Miroslav Philharmonik will be what I have to settle for.
