Minimum reasonable computer speed?

Whats the minimum reasonable computer platform for controlling something
like a 4 axis xylotec board?

I've got an old 486 (about 33mhz), which I think should be sufficent,
but I just want to double check.
Is there any advantage to running something faster?

Thanks,
CS
