I'm looking into buying a 386DX/40 system.  Basically, what I'd like to
know is how much faster it is than a 386SX/25 and how much slower is it
than a 486SX/25?  Oh yeah, the thing also has a 64K cache.

Am I better off spending extra money to get a 486 system?  Are all 386's
gonna be obsolete soon?

Please email me if you can give me some info.  Thanks.
Mike.
