Re: It was really hard to strafe running at 1fps on an 8088 by laudablepuss 03/20/2011, 8:28pm PDT
I guess we had a "fast" 8088 because the 286s were out by the time we got ours or something (we got it in 1988). I think it was 13 Mhz with a *gasp* 20 MB hard drive. Not sure what RAM it had. And we bought a math coprocessor for it, dunno if that helped with games at all. :/

                    Max 8088 and 86 was like 9.66mhz. Maybe you just had a proper 8086? by Entropy Stew 03/20/2011, 10:04pm PDT NEW
