- i am about to buy a 486-50dx with local bus and had a few questions
-
-
-
- should i worry about mips or do all 486-50dx computers rate about the same
-
-
- and when doing "direct screen writes" does the S3 ram have wait states
- or is it really running at 50mhz, if so what speed ram does it have?
-
-
- do all local busses have the same pin out? or what makes one s3 card
- uncompatable with another one?
-
- are there any book/information on programming the S3 cards?
