Actually a DOS X terminal works very well on a 386 with 4 MB or more (2 MB
is ok). One very good thing about DOS, it made one an efficient programmer
with limited resources; it also did not hog up all the system resources as
Win9x-NT do. A windows X terminal also works acceptably although windows
will slow it down on 6 MB or less. Perhaps linux 8086 might work well too,
if it ever gets an X server.
