I have one running 3.1/98 multiboot and it works flawlessly. I got mine for $15. I know it is hard to find a decent machine for old os's.

Didn't see that. I was just making a reference to it because I have a couple and they run great with older software. Another thing I like about that model is that it uses the Cyrix processor not cheap celerons or anything.

I think that most Celerons will outperform the Cyrix.

...for money! Well, there are people like me who like to collect old computers, broken or unbroken. But the most i'm paying for is 35$CN for anything.

I have an old Compaq that works great! It has win3.1 on it, Office 4, and I am letting it go for free if anyone wants it. I am in Sydney, Australia!
