Can someone tell me the difference between a 33MHz 486DX motherboard and
a 66MHz DX2 motherboard (except of course for the processor itself).
I found a company selling motherboards without processors, and they
were selling 33MHz 486 boards for a little less than 66MHz DX2 boards.
I thought that the boards were identical, as the external bus rate of the
two chips is the same, but I guess not.


Cheers,
