I have a bus compatibility question ... are the internal busses in the XT, AT & 386 based PC's compatible?? Can I plug a card designed for the XT into an AT or a 386 based machine??? If not, is the difference the address/data bus width, control or what? Thanx in advance. Direct comments to me through mail. I will post a summary if necessary. Jim Marocchi uunet!motcid!marocchi
