I have a 16 bit ISA card that is a Motorola 68020 with
68881 (or is it the
68882?). Anyway the card
is a complete single board computer that plugs into your AT system. It is made
by a company called
DSI and came with C and FORTRAN, I believe.
My all-time favourite is the Wyse 700, a two-board sandwich
of fast TTL and a 6545. It could do 1280x800 graphics
(monochrome) way back in 1986 or so, which was great for
the first generation of PC-based Desk-Top Publishing
programs like Ventura.
I still have one, and the special monochrome CRT for it.
