I meant systems that would load and run PC-DOS right out of the box,
i.e. "PC compatible" systems. The Grid would fall under that
heading, but not many of the others--and certainly not the NEC APC.
The 8086 was attractive for the Grid because it came in a low-power
CMOS version--the 80c88 came along a bit later.
