Bob,

I think PB avoided that one. VESA local bus systems were almost all 486s.
There were a few odd Pentium VLB systems, and even some strange hybrids with
VLB, PCI and ISA all on the same motherboard, a nice mishmash... Ben Myers

As usual, you know your stuff. :-)

I have collected motherboards for many years, probably since about '95. I
have all that you mention above, and even bought quite a few of the 486
PCI/ISA/VESA boards new. They worked very well. Still have some.

But years ago, when I found a Socket 4 Pentium 60 ISA/VESA board, I would
have bet money that they didn't exist. I found a brand new one actually a
couple of years ago.

Then I found a Socket 5 Pentium ISA/VESA board ! Really weird.

I never saw a PB VESA computer, but wondered if they existed.

Thanks

bob
