I am looking into buying a 386 box that will support DOS, OS/2 and UN*X.
I have heard that IBM has AIX for its PS/2 line so the Model 70 - 061
(20 MHz) seems to be a reasonable platform (given the educational discount).
I have the following questions though:
	1) Does this model have 8 or 16-bit VGA?
	2) How much and what type of memory can I plug directly into the
		mother board?
	3) Does this model have a cache unit?
	4) Will I be able to get cards that work with the MCA?
	5) Is there any reason I shouldn't buy this machine?

Please respond directly to me and I will post a summary if anyone is
interested.  Thank you.
