Hi,
        I'm considering purchasing a used 486-66 SLC-2 based clone using
an Alaris ISA motherboard, and a Cirrus logic SVGA card.
My main intended use is for games and running Windows.  I know that
games are notoriously sensitive to hardware configurations, so I would
appreciate knowing if this particular CPU is game clean :-).  Also,
apart from games, how is this CPU in general?  It costs about $200 less
than a DX2, so there must be some compromise.

        Please email me your responses, as I don't often scan these
boards.

Thanks,
Wayne
