I have been looking all over the place for a 486. I've tried thrift stores (all except one that I should try), Goodwill, eBay, Craigslist, resale shops, pawn shops, and computer shops, and none of them have anything older than a Pentium II. That is where the question comes in - how rare are 486 PCs? Anyone else know?

What is the first thing a computer says?

I saw quite a few here in a popular eBay-like site “ruten” here in Taiwan. For instance:

486DX-33 https://www.ruten.com.tw/item/show?21830384184754
486-66 8M RAM : https://www.ruten.com.tw/item/show?21804627580092

Even in PC Home USA:
486SX-33 Notebook: https://www.pchomeus.com/item/show?30212455351450

Hope you eventually find what you like.
