There was a review in PC Week within the last three weeks of several 386sx
upgrade 'boards' for 286 machines.  Typically these products offer
little speed improvement, but do allow running '386 codes.  One product,
from Microway, is designed to offer substantial speed improvement thanks
to onboard 32K or 64K cache.  So I thought I would order one for testing.
We called Microway and they said there was a problem running Microsoft
Windows 3.0!  Probably the biggest reason these days for having a 386
machine...  They said they were working on it and would have it fixed
soon.
