Pocket 386 supports external accessories and will just barely run Windows 95.

I've got a 486SX industrial PC that I refurbed. Much fun!

But you can hardly expand this thing at all. And there's a hella dividing line between a 386 and any given 486. I got mine loaded with 128MB, USB floppy emulator (a MUST have) and an SSD (through adapters). You just can't do that with this animal, can't even add a math coprocessor.

I'd give $20 to have one to play with, that's it.
