[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Info req: Mathco

I was reading the July 16, 1990 issue of PC Week and saw an ad that caught
my eye.  Advanced Micro Devices is advertising an 80C287 math coprocessor
for only $99.00.  I could not believe it.  Does anyone know anything about
it (ie. speed) or even how reliable the company's products have been in the past.  The only thing that makes me skeptical is that the company adds, in very
small print, that you are "limited to two lifetime replacements per
person."  I know components do not fail very often but this does not
exactly install confidence in them.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
