Could someone explain to me the difference (both technical and
practical) between the 80386sx, and the 80386, and 80286?

I am going to be getting a new computer, and notice several similarly
priced 286 and 386sx machines, and wonder what the tradeoffs are among
the three processors.

Please e-mail replies if you think this is of little general interest.

Thanks,
	Jim
