I agree, The video card is all important. I have a group of 486/66 with some 33's thrown in. The 66's with a low grade video card run approximatly the same as the 33's with the same vid. However if I put a better (still ISA) video card in (#9gxe 2Meg VRAM), the performance improves drastically. I can't imagine what a decent pentium with a PCI video card would be able to do.
