- I'll admit it. I use a Mac. But I have a simple(?) question about the
- intel x86 CPU's. (If this is a FAQ, please direct me to the proper
- place as I don't read this news group.) So here goes...
-
- My brother-in-law just bought a 486SX machine. What is the difference
- between the 486SX and the _normal_ 486 chip? FPU? 16 v. 32 bits? ???
- Is there a _normal_ (full powered?) 486 chip? The 486DX?
-
- Thanks - Kevin
