I am planning on buying a GATEWAY 2000 SX and would like to know the limi-
tations of the SX compared to a "true" 386. Does the SX have a 32 bit mother-
board? Can I upgrade it later to a true 386? Finally, what chipset does GATEWAY
use in their products.


How does the GATEWAY 2000 SX (16mhz) compare against a 20Mhz 286 and is it 
possible to speed up the SX to say 20Mhz?

Thanks.
