I also have a 486dx2-66 that is 586 compatible, however I heard that only
the CYRIX (or IBM) chip could be put in a m/b and that the AMD chip wasn't
an option, is that true and how does the AMD 5x86/133 compare to the CYRIX
586-100 for speed (Isn't it also supposed to rate faster than a Pentium 75,
I would have expected the AMD chip to be somewhere around the Pentium 90 or
100).
