  11.   I am considering purchasing a math-coprocessor for my 386-40.  I have heard
  12. that the Cyrix co-processor chip tests out the fastest and is the only one
  13. that can perform all of the instruction set with no compatibility problems.
  14.   Does anyone have any experience/information on these chips?  I am not 
  15. concerned with the price differences, since they are minimal ($25-40), but
  16. am greatly concerned with getting the best available chip.
