I took the time to clean up and reassemble this budget-oriented pc from 1993 / 94. At one point I had etchy fingers and wanted to put in a DX-33 or DX2 and more cache, but I decided to keep it low-end mostly just to see how it performed. Also, I did spend quite some hours of my childhood on an SX-25.
The machine and its parts. 8 megs of parity ram, 128k cache is integrated, S3 924 video card in 32-bit local bus mode. Also it has a Mozart sound blaster clone with a 2x Mitsumi drive that goes with it. Possibly one of the early "multi-media" bundles.
It's not fast for a 486. There were some ussues with the ram, hence some figures with only 4 megs. I will supply further performance details using the DosBench pack supplied by our good guy Phil.
