Right, I can recall the first time I saw my friend's parent's 486. I remember doing 'dir' on a large directory, it scrolled so fast, so fast. I said to my friend, "The next generation will be so fast it will have finished scrolling before you finish typing the command." Sadly, it was not to be. DOS on a 486 is as fast as computers have ever gotten, perceptually.
