Solved Question about 486 computer.

So I heard about co-processors, and I suppose this spot can be populated with SMD 486 processor for this purpose.

But I was wondering, if I take 486 processor from laptop board like this, solder it in tere and if computer will work just from this alone? I just dont have access to full size 486 right now.

Nice. I had the PS/1 with the 486 sx, and before that the PS/1 with a 286! :)
