- I am interested in finding out whether an ET4000 based card or
- an S3 card would work best for a 486 system running OS 2.0. I do
- know that an S3 is great for graphics but slow in text mode and
- the ET4000 doesn't have the same performance improvement as the
- S3 in graphics mode but is faster in text mode. Would a local
- bus make a difference? Any comments will be appreciated.
- TIA.
