Hello Yoke Lim, I'm getting ready to do a similiar upgrade for a friend of mine--upgrading a 486-33 so it can run Win95, etc. They don't care too much about the speed, just being able to get the work done. SIIG makes a card similiar to the Promise and DTC cards that you mentioned. If you can get reliable WWW access (even if it is slow), you could could watch for these cards on an online auction such as WWW.EBAY.COM. I've seen this type of card sell for less than $20 USD. Many eBay sellers are very reluctant to ship outside of the US though. Sometimes the merchandise on eBay is new and warrantied; sometimes it is used and sold "as-is". However, it is another alternative for purchase.
