I remeber some brand of memory addon cards were prised back in the 286 era,
Intel Aboveboard comes to mind.
I am looking at an add for one of those suckers in PC Sources, Jan 1991.
2mb to 16mb (using 30 pin simms) Error Detection and correction LIM-EMS 44.0
compatible $395 for 4mb

Im sure somebody with a
AT/286 would want one for the heck of it.
They would work on an Amiga with my GG2 Bus+ and a (user written) driver.
The card maps ISA memory and I/O space into a 1MB AUTOCONFIG space.
It would be cretinously slow.
