I've got an Intel Inboard card, but mounted in a 5150 with a Plus hardcard.
I've also been searching for the piggyback with no luck so far. Would adding
a 387 co-processer speed applications up significantly ? I'm also on the
lookout for an 8-bit VGA card for this set-up. I have a 16-bit card with a
switch for either 9 or 15 pin connectors. I don't suppose this would work
in the 8-bit 5150 would it ? I know some 16-bit cards will work in an 8-bit.

since im known
at work as a packrat of old computer junk, someone gave
something called a microsoft <!> mach 20. turns out it's a full length
card that has a 286-8 and 2 meg and high density floppy controller on
I also have a card something like that. INBOARD386PC (I have it box and
all!), it goes in a XT class machine and gives you a 386sx/16 with 1mb
ram. I use it in a leading edge model D to make a nice fast sorta
turbo-xt. I've run win3.1 on it but with 1mb of ram it's real pokey and
some apps can't eb run.
It's limitation is that the board only has 1mb of ram. I'm on the lookout
for a matching memory card. There were two different piggyback memory
cards 2mb and 4mb. also anyone have a slow (16mhz) 387math co processor
(PGA package)?
