Wasn't the slowest 486 running at 25 MHz? 8 sounds a bit slow. How fast<br>
did Intel go with the 486? I know the 66 MHz version was quite popular<br>
for awhile. I seem to (vaguely) remember some late-model 486's at 75<br>
and 100 MHz. AMD made a 486 running at 133 MHz (i still have one<br>
running in a cardboard box as my firewall). I don't know about any<br>
faster than that though.</blockquote></div><br>I find the idea of 133 MHz 486's amusing, mainly because my first pentium ran at a blistering 60 MHz. ~1995, IIRC.<br>
