[net.micro.amiga] 80286 SideCar To Be Shown

perry@atux01.UUCP (P. Kivolowitz) (04/02/86)

At a Jersey Amiga User  Group  meeting it was disclosed that CBM will
produce a sidecar containing an intel 80286 and some amount of memory
to enable the  Amiga  PC  to  perform  IBM  PC emulation at IBM PC/AT 
speeds.

No price or availability  was  disclosed  BUT...I have heard that the
manufacturer's rep  has  one which  means that it won't be toooo long
before the product is brought to market.

The above is not to be  construed as an offer to sell the above ment-
ioned product nor is it a  commitment  to produce such a product. The
above is offered as a (well founded) rumor.
