That reminds me of all the 286s in Hamfests I saw 15+ years ago -
Wolf3D every direction you turned, until people got tired of hauling
286s to Hamfests to watch them not sell.
It was a long time until sellers found a new "attract" program to pull
in buyers. At least the smoothness of the animation could give you a
rough idea of the overall performance of the system - much better than
quoting megahertz and waitstates.

My question is, what are these good for these days? What sort of use could
something like this be put to?
Playing Wolfenstein 3D? :)
