Keywords: coprocessor, clock speed Message-ID: <1989Oct15.063438.24270@rpi.edu> Date: 15 Oct 89 06:34:38 GMT Organization: Fargo HQ, Inc. Lines: 16 I own a 12 Mhz AT compatible machine (To be specific, the Zenith Z-248-12). I am now in the market for an 80287 numeric coprocessor and would like to know what the optimal speed chip is that I can put in. I know that the Zenith can work with an 80287-8. I just would like to know if getting an 80287-10 or other higher clock speed chip is worth bthe extra money. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- Thank you and happy hunting!
