Better short term choice also -- new "586"DX133 PCI mo'boards w/ 256k cache
and on-board IDE/I/O are $110, retail quantity one... NOt only do you get
PCI, but also an up-to-date BIOS w/ CR-ROM support, PNP, etc. OTOH, AMD
K5-133 (Pentium 133 class) mo' boards w/ 430VX chip set, 256k cache, onboard
IDE/I/O are only $165-$170 and represent a true step up.
... OFFLINE 1.50
--- InterEcho 1.19
