From a vanila 386 clone (Gateway 2000 386/20) you will get 30% more performance, 800% more slots, 100% more RAM, 50% more hard disk space, 100% more flopy drives, 256% more pixels (video) and a multitasking graphical operating environment (windows 3.0 386). All for 30% less money. Actually, it is unfair for the 386 clone to compare it with the TT since the TT doesn't exist yet. :-) Thanasis
