That I know they are 286 class, I didn't mean to imply that I thought they

so they have a subset of the 386 instruction set available, but are still
basically 286 machines.
I know I have 3 model 60 machines in various
conditions. What was the
fastest 486 class microchannel machine that was made?
Well, first the 60 isn't a 486. It's a 286. The fastest Intel-based Microchannel machine was the
IBM PC Server
720. It has 6 Pentiums. The fastest Microchannel 486 was the IBM PC
Server Server 95A with a 486DX2-66, but Pentium was already out by
then.
I'd like to find a 486 or pentium class microchannel machine to test
software with one of these days. I'm just not sure what I should be
looking for.
