NU115247@NDSUVM1.BITNET (10/13/89)
I would like to know of any accelator boards for the XT. I know that Intel makes one, but I'm not real wild about that one, They say that you can't use ANY of your old system RAM and the memory expansion card with a meg on it cost around $380 or so. Which I thing is very unreasonable, considering that a 1 Meg x 100 ns SIMM costs about $110 nowdays. What I'm looking for is a board that can use my old system memory as a RAM disk or so cache it to use it to run programs or one that I can add my own memory with SIMM's. On the other hand, one of my friends mentioned to me that some software company was offering a software package (a spreadsheet, I think) which they were offering a free 286 accelator board with the package (a $69 dollar value they said) has anyone else heard of this? Or does anyone know of a 286 board that is that cheap? Thanks for any help in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Cooper | Stress: The confusion created when the NU115247@NDSUVM1.BITNET | mind overrides the bodies desire NU115247@VM1.NoDak.EDU | to choke the living shit out of (701) 235-6315 | asshole who desperately needs it.
