Performs in Quake well at around 12fps avg (not too shabby really)

Cinebench r10 scores: 13 CB-CPU, 193 CB-GFX
Issues:
- Serial port issues (MOUSE JUMPING!)
- Lack of TSC (Timestamp clock) means detecting CPU mhz in some apps like dxdiag and ff7config causes a nice segfault.
- Can't install DirectX 8.x or 9. DirectX 7 is the best DirectX you can possibly install on a 486 cpu.
- Under Windows 2000,ethernet card hogs loads of cpu, and stops completely without any more packets after a minute
