[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Intel Inboard AT/386 for sale

I have an Intel Inboard 386/AT for sale.  I was using it in a PC's
Limited machine but I upgraded to my current '386 and left the
Inboard orphaned.  Detetails of the Inboard:

*  Works in '286 machines, not 8088 machines.
*  Designed to work on an 8 Mhz bus.  If you put it in a 6 Mhz IBM machine
   you have to put in a replacement crystal, but that is supplied with the
   IBM installation kit, which I do not have.  
*  I have the clone installation kit for clones, not for genuine
   IBM ATs. 
*  Has 64 K cache.
*  Has 1 MB on the Inboard and a 2 MB daughterboard, both are populated
   with 120ns 256Kx1 chips for a total of 3 MB.  
*  It benchmarked out to be nearly as fast as the original Compaq/386
   when I was running it in the PC's Limited machine
*  3 MB is the maximum 32 bit memory that is supported, but it can also 
   use 16 bit memory on the AT bus.  
*  The ribbon cable has NOT been creased.  Intel says you can crease
   the cable once to get it to fit correctly, but I did not have to
   do that when I installed it.  

Price:  Make me an offer.  If you have a 8 Mhz '286 clone setting around
this would be a good way to upgrade it to '386 capability.  I really have
no use for this board any more.  

Happy upgrading!
