What are the various bugs that each revision of the 80486 chip, and what
did each succeeding revision fix ?

I'm wondering because I was looking at getting a 486 motherboard without
the 486 chip and then getting a chip... a local electronics store says that
the latest 486 chip cost *twice* as much as a B3 or B4 ...
