I agree with Cameron that this sounds like a troll.

An 8088 can't run Wolf 3D.  Wolf 3D needs a hard disk and memory.
All GS software can benefit from a hard drive and memory.  The GS
is much faster than an 8086 (stock speed comparable to 8Mhz 286).
It is an exciting computer.  People who want to use it come here.  If
you don't want to use it, why are you here?
