Ive got a bit of a question...

Nice find! A bit rare (for me).

Bought one a couple of days ago for $7 http://www.cpu-world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4927

Very nice. Most of the 486's IBM made for Intel were 66mhz. I would say it is worth well more then $7. I know I would pay considerably more myself.

Wow, you could see that? After rubbing on it with some nasty smelling chemicals this is what I've got, SX329.

I noticed that old logo as well. They fetch a surprising amount of money on e-bay (~$25). Good guess on the sx329 though. I seem to always find sx419's.

Also, I have contacted xi11west and indicated I would like to purchase his intel 486 dx2-50 mfg by IBM.
