- Please forgive me if this is an overworked question:
-
- I'm already looking to upgrade my 1 year old 386/33. I've just read
- a bit about the pin-compatible Cyrix chip (486DLC?). Is it easy, or
- at all possible, to switch the 386/33 chip with this?
-
- What other ways would you recommend?
- Should I just replace the whole motherboard and get a local-bus type?
- Or should I wait for more choices in VESA standard LB?
-
- Again sorry if this has been too often addressed. Looked thru the last
- 400 or so posts and didn't see anything.
-
- E-mail preferable.
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Dave Masten
