Hi, My computer, a 80386, 20Mhz, supports both the 287 and 387 math-co- processor. Can anyone tell me what differences that would be if I go for the cheaper 287. The only 287 I would buy/afford is the AMD clone. Your comment/recommendation is appreciated. E-mails welcome! Casey

Depends on your application. I'm using the 386/287 combination. Most DOS applications should work - I tested AutoCad 9, Turbo Pascal, Lotus 123. Unix and gcc for MSDOS require a 80387, though.
