- I just inherited a 486/33. Have already got a NSTurbo. Needless to say, the 486
- is big, ugly, and running the ugliest OS in the world (hint - produced by Microsoft).
- I loathe the monster.
- I can get a Turbo machine for @$3700. What I'd like to know is, since I haven't been
- following the news conc. NS 486, how much would it cost me to set up the mastodon as
- roughly equivalent to my NSTurbo? Or should I just sell the damned thing? It's got a 17" SVGA monitor,
- Orchid graphics card, 8 megs memory, 125 M hd, etc.
- Would anyone care to offer advice about NS 486? I can't run DOS or Windows - they turn my
- stomach.

- Thanks
