I played Wing Commander on a 10 MHz 286 with EGA and PC Speaker. It must have been 5-10 fps 😀

I had a blast with Wing Commander I and my 20 MHz 286 then, with Sound Blaster and VGA graphics. It had 2MB RAM with hardware EMS board. It was running off a Seagate 40MB HDD, with fully expanded installation ("Save Time" option - remember those Save Time or Save Space options? 😁)
