OK, here it is.
	SX		DX
16 data lines	32 data lines
24 addr lines	32 addr lines
max mem=16Meg	max mem=4Gig

Internally the chips are the same and will run the same software (if it
doesn't use more than 16 meg). For those fetches that are 32 bit, the
SX will be slower, of course.

PS there is a co-proc for the SX also (80387sx).
