Hi,

  I'm posting for a friend who's business is desperately needing to upgrade
from and 8088 with a 20meg drive and 1-360k to something *faster*.  This
machine will be doing a considerable amount of number crunching/disk accessing
etc.  Any recommendations?  She doesn't want to purchase *too* much hardware.
However, she's wanting fast, not necessarily color, 40meg, 1-360k floppy
and 1-1.44meg 3.5 floppy.  She's looking at in the future going to a network.
SHould she go with a 386?
