Wow, must be nice.  My machine was bought to run 386bsd as well.  It was
a 486/33 ISA box (it predated VLB), and it's *still* my main development
box, although it has seen some upgrades in it's day.  Now, it's a 486/66
box, and it may go to a 486/100 soon.  However, the motherboard, disk
controller, and floppies are still original.

It *was* the development box for the 'interim release' and the builder
of patchkits until WC donated freefall. :)
