- I am getting a 486/33 with local bus, and I intend to run UNIX in half a
- year. Is this a fine move? Or should I get pure ISA 16 bit instead? How
- much speed differece do i really get with a local bus?
-
- I have been asking several vendors but they couldn't seems to be certain
- about the speed for their local bus.
-
- Any help appreciated, preferably by email. I have to make my decision in
- three days time.
-
- Thanks
