I doubt you could find a 486 chip or a motherboard to support it. Just try to find an old 486 laptop - someone might even pay you to take it away. ;)

Won't the games run on a modern machine? I wonder if it might be possible to find a 486 emulator.

@MasterLee That's a start. Now, what about the chips and memory? ;)
