What are you bellyaching about!!  I have.. a..

386SX/16 with 3MB RAM (2 1x9's plus 4 256kX4's)

WD 40MB hard disk (one of the earliest IDE drives)

It has a blazing fast SMC 8003E...

AND it doesn't work if in turbo mode.  (So figure it's a 386SX/8)

Any takers?  I can (barely) think of worse configurations.  Surely
somebody has one!
