16550N UARTS, that ought to at least equal the IIfx serial ports with the IOPs turned on. The rest of the IOP functions would be irrelevant to an internet test. :) Hmmm, would need a good ISA multi I/O card too since I don't recall any 386DX/40 having much if any integrated input/oputput. Heh, the IIfx definately has an edge in expandability. The 386 will need a video card, SCSI card, and I/O card just to get started. ===== http://www.junkscience.com "All the Junk that's fit to Debunk!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
