to everyone wondering where i got the upgrade kit, it was free from my hardware class at college lol. You might be able to find one on eBay

[Superdude688]

My first computer was an IBM 286!! My second was a IBM 486 DX 4 100. This brings me back. Thanx for sharing!! :)

Since my agp graphics card broke down, the 486sx is my gaming machine.
