- Norton Desktop for Windows as a CPU speed benchmark tool which compares
- your CPU to a Compaq 386/33. I have a 386/33 with 64K cache and it
- measures to about half of the Compaq benchmark. I have run the
- Landmark test which shows my CPU equivalent to a XT at 48MHz, which
- I believe is about right.
-
- Am I missing something, or is a Compaq 386/33 so much
- faster than other 386/33's?
