Can be gotten from PC Connection for around $300. They work in a wide variety of PC-compatables, and the SOTA support is excellent. They have a BBS -- 1-408-745-0326, 8N1, FDX -- if you have compatability concerns. An 8087 coprocessor will not work in conjunction with a 80286 chip. For one thing, the 80287 is a different shape, and different inside as well. Bob M., PSU-Harrisburg.
