Unless its a 286 XT ;) In which case it probably
has a ribbon cable running
from the cpu socket, connected to a Microsoft Mach 20 board in one of
the expansion slots.
I have to disagree - thats an upgraded XT, but there have been
'true' XT286 from IBM - these are branded as XT or XT286 and
utilize the 286 on the mainboard (AFAIK it has been a special
Mobo revision). I just can't hit the modell number.
