I have a intel Inboard 316 and it was fairly full function
with only one problem, RAM. It ran dos and win3.1 fine with 2mb
but adding ram was not easily done as I never found the matching
stacking ram card for it. With only 2mb win3.1 ran but most higher
powered apps ran out of memory. Running win3.11 and Win95
was impossible due to lack of ram, it really needed at least 4mb
to be marginal and 8mb to be functional.
Mine was installed in a Leading Edge model D. The model D died
but the Inboard is still in my collection.

It would seem that there would be a substantial gap in te
usability/pricing between major name brand ones, and those made by unknown
long defunct companies, particularly if drivers are needed, such
as "available driver is for DOS 3.30 or below", "Win9X only", etc.
