99.99% of people would be just as happy with a 386.......................
Until it came to running games. Truth is the processor of the future is likely ARM based. And ARM inspired by the humble 65816 in many ways.

Silly post.

That number is a lot lower than you think.
Biggest block are gamers, who couldn’t play the vast majority of game that have come out in the last two decades on a 386.
Video and media development would take forever on a 386 too.
I remember in 1993 I ran a surface render on a map of the United States with 3D extrusions of each state (to demostrate a variation in a statistic for a report) in AutoCad that I had to let run in the lab overnight. In 1999 I could run the same render in less than 10 minutes. Today it would probably render in seconds.
What’s a Threa dripper?
I remember being very happy when I got Windows 3.1 to run on a 386... so I tend to agree. But I have gotten kind of spoiled with all the fancy crap we have these days.
