Hey gang! It has come to pass that my ole 'part r us' 286 has finally shown its inadequacies (sp?) and I have decided to make the move to a 386 system. I am somewhat confused though regarding the 386 vs. 386SX systems. Will the SX run ALL software designed for a straight 386? I do not wish to get the SX and go through the hair pulling that I have done so far with my juked 286! The only reason I consider the SX is because of money. If the SX will not provide the same results (except speed) as a straight 386, then I will have to bite the bullet and go straight 386. I wish to have the capabilities of OS/2, UNIX, Xenix, etc. as well as MSDOS. Vaprak@Cup.Portal.Com Sun!Cup.Portal.Com!Vaprak
