A 386DX-16???  I always assumed it required a 33mhz machine.  Of course
I suppose I drew that conclusion becasue most 386dxs were probably 33,
at least the ones I see.  I did own a 386DX-16 at one point.  It is the
only one I have ever seen or heard of.

What are the minumum requirements for w98?  I have considered doing a
minimal install of 95 or 98 on my 486DX2-66, it has 40megs of ram.  I
,of course, would like to up that :-)  I haven't done it, becasue I
haven't wanted to abandon WFWGs, and I don't know how well it will run
on a 486.  I have thought about NT 3.51 as well.
