  13. From "InfoWorld Direct," November 1992 issue, p. 29:
  14.  
  15. "Neither Cyrix nor AMD competes in the upgradables market at the 486 level.
  16. 'There are far more 386s out there; that's what people need to upgrade, not
  17. 486s,' said Cyrix spokesman Mike Bruzzone.  Cyrix's DRU and DRU2 chips
  18. address this market, allowing 386SXs to be upgraded to 486s."
  19.  
  20. Does anybody know about the new DRU & DRU2 chips?  Is the DRU for 386SXs
  21. and the DRU2 for 386DXs?  What about pricing?  Availability?  Anything?
