My PS/2 has a Simens 8086-2 in it which runs at 8MHz. What I'm wondering is, did a stock 25 come with a 4.77MHz 8086 or an 8MHz one?
Model 25 and Model 30 both came with 8 MHz 8086-2.
I wonder... Did the on-board MCGA adapter on the 8086-based models have a 16-bit bus interface with the CPU?
Since the PS/2 Model 25 and Model 30 were only ISA based and the 8086 versions thus (I assume?) had only 8-bit ISA slots, an internal 16-bit video bus would at least have given those system an advantage in terms of video graphics performance.
