  I went from an 8088 4 mhz straight to the Cyrix 486 80 mhz. mentioned
below. Talk about blazing speed difference.

  I have a Cyrix 486 dx2 80 set up for the wife to do word processing
with. Everytime I have to do maintenence on it the speed of the system
drives me nuts. I have it loaded with a clean install of Win 3.1 and
Word 6 for windows and that is all - but man o' man is it slooooooow.

 It was also very slow when I was using it for rendering Pov 2.2 scenes
but it didn't seem so slow when it was the fastest system I ever owned.
