By request of several people, I will summize my findings on the 386 vs SX decision. Many people replied (I'm grateful) and stated that the SX is FULLY 386 compatible yet will have the speed of a 286. In effect, a slow version of the 386. If speed is an issue, go straight 386. If not, the SX is a clear winner! In the recent PC Mag, the AST, Austin, and Zeos SX systems received Editor's Choice awards. Vaprak@Cup.Portal.Com Sun!Cup.Portal.Com!Vaprak
