I've got an AT clone and I want to think about the possibility or upgrading it to a 386. I've seen the Intel Above board advertised here and there. Do you need to possibly buy faster memory (i.e. replace your existing memory) to go along with the memory on the Above board? (is there memory on the Above board?) What happens to the existing 286? or better yet, what can you do with it? Is everything I have already going to be able to run transparently with the board? Also, since some of the big names are making machines with the 386sx chip now, will there be boards/adapters/etc that we will be able to buy to get more oomph out of our 286's? It seems to me that the 386sx option will be cheaper, but it might be a while before we see any add-on stuff available. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "This of course is impossible ..." - Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy wirun@ucalgary.ca cwirun@uncaedu.BITNET wirun@uncamult.BITNET ----------------------------------------------------------------------
