Has anyone use the Wavemate 386 boards, particularly for UNIX or Xenix? I am interested in building a few 386's, and just saw their ad. Wavemate is an old company which has been making some nice stuff for many years now, and the motherboard has a five year warantee. Obviously that means more from a compnay which has been making circuit boards for ten years than most of the people selling 386 boards.

Well, I called... this price doesn't include the 386 processor, just the motherboard. For a '386-20, the price should be ~$275, but I haven't prices the '386-25. Probably ~$100 more. Still not a bad price next to many of the motherboards out there, but not the steal it first appears to be. > --Andrew P.S.
