na I aint a Pentium dealer, I do sell hardware for a living but as the
customer has underated opinions like yourself I am forced to sell them what
they want.  This means I have to sell Cyrix, IBM and Intel chips.

OK and here we go,  One Graphics Blaster Card with 2 Megs failed to run
with MPEG Movies on a Cyrix 686, the Pentium did it just fine.  More games
will NOt run using a Cyrix Chip than an Intel under Win95, I don't know why
but they just don't.
Not so much as a 686 problem, but 586 Cyrix cards would not run properly
with a PCI 64 Video Card.

The fact that a Cyrix runs faster than a Pentium is due to the badging of
the CPU more than anything else as a Pentium 200 runs faster than a Pentium
100.
Bet you'll argue that 1 too.

It makes absolutely no difference to me what you have in your machine. All
of the ppl I deal with as suppliers prefer to use Intel, and why do you
think that most if not all MAJOR companies use Intel rather than Cyrix.  I
can Personally vouch that Microsoft and AMP will not use anything less than
Intel .

I can support the facts, but as I said, there are ppl who will prefer sub
quality standards whether for cost or ignorance. I aint sure what category
you put yourself into there but basically your problem...not mine.

I have an Intel inside
