I've got a 20 Mhz 386DX that used to be a 16 Mhz 386DX until I changed
the oscillator.  (the CPU and all the C&T chips were stamped '20mhz'
so why not... memory is at 80ns anyway).

Unfortunately, the documentation I got with the motherboard is
rather minimal and I bought it used.

What speed 287 can I drop in?

I'd very much like to get AMD's 10Mhz $99 special so I can play
Falcon 3.0 at higher speed (when it comes out!)

The motherboard is supposedly from Everest, but there's no markings
on it.
