I have been considering a purchase of a fast 486 system but I am overwhelmed by the options. One thing that concerns me, if I go the build it yourself route, is motherboard upgradability. Will a 33Mhz 486 board accept a 66Mhz DX2 chip without modification? What does this "overdrive" chip from Intel require from a motherboard? -- Will Fiveash, "My opinions above, facts below."
