<It's also funny to see a 486 with 8mb of RAM and Win 3.1x run faster than a pentium II/450 with 128mb of RAM under win98.>

I hope you don't truly believe this. Let's have a contest downloading an 8mb graphic from the internet and rendering 3D drop shadow special effects in 32bit color mode, you use Win3.1 and I'll use Win 98. After that we'll play a quick game of Quake. We can even use the same hardware.

The OS has a world of difference in performance. Raw speed on simple tasks are not a realistic comparison.
