Well, the sound card could be affected by the RTLinux ? I think.

But, if you get something to add about your experience with the 486 that you
think deserve to be mentioned, let us know and we could add it to the linuxcnc
stuff.

I say this because it may be easier now, when things is fresh in memory. I
did have a few problems, writing this at a very later date.

And I did not test what outputs you could get of steppers, I installed a STG
board.

I did mention some timing data a while ago.

Would it be possible to make some simple test for steppers, maybe just log the
update freq. and make a list for comparison for what different computers could
do ?

If I just had the time, I would have like to test 386s too.
