Will AIX run on it (it should)? What kind of real-world performace will you gain from a 486/25 over a 386/25 (marketing rubbish claims 80% on 'buisiness applications' (whatever they are) and 4 times better on 'compute intensive applications' (whatever they are)) If it delivers what they claim, might actually be a reason to buy a PS/2-70 (heaven forbid...;'). Thanks... ...ken seefried iii ken@gatech.edu
