I had a 486 DX4/100mhz from around 1996 until 2001, I could not afford anything better - My Dad had a Pentium 166 but it was reserved for his work and was way more expensive then the 486 which was my personal computer, which I personally purchased for my own use - which in those days was mostly gaming. The 486 was an absolute workhorse however one thing I do remember is it struggled to play MP3's in Winamp it would peg the CPU at 100% and made multitasking basically impossible. It wasn't until I upgraded from the 486 that I could play Quake and Mp3's at the same time.
