I'm trying to decide between getting a 486-120 AMD CPU and a Pentium 90.  
Either motherboard would be PCI.  There seem to be so many problems with 
the Pentium PCI motherboards.  People have said to stay away from 
Neptune, Triton, etc.   Yet I haven't heard such warnings about 486 PCI 
motherboards.  Is this because they are more reliable or because they are 
far less common?

I'll be using it for OS/2, in case that helps.
