First of all, this guy wants to offer a 386sx 16Mhz with a fast crystal installed to yield 20Mhz (he says Norton SI is 21). Is this a safe thing to do? Will it burn out the board? He wants to charge $400 for it (without any memory I think). Is that a fair price or is it too high? I think he wants around $80 for 1 meg of 80ns Simms. Is that a good deal? Please E-mail me.
