    Does windows use a floating point chip if its present? I have no
programs that specifically require one, but $300 for a 387sx would
be much easier to take than upgrading my sx to a full size machine.
I'd like to here from someone who has done a side by side comparison
of two identical machines except that one has a 387. I'll post
results if they're interesting enough
