# have a icl 16mhz 386sx
a (typical for icl) well designed system.. *cough*

but it's got an eprom programmer on it and the software is too shite to work on anything faster, I think the 386's too fast for it to be honest :)

tho £100 or so gets me a programmer that'll program about 4 times as many memories and do other things

I'm just loathe to throw out working hardware really :D

# An old 386!
Probably has a Turbo button as well, to slow it down because it was too powerful...? :) I want my old 486 SX25. With the turbo button pressed it could even run some old programs without flashing them by at 128fps...

# no turbo button, I think it would explode due to quality issues
tho it has to be said, that some games were so shittily written that they were an actual blurr on this machine

trying the same games on an early pentium just created a magnificent spazzing blast of alternate conciousness :D
