I am interested in information you may have about designing software or systems
with the Intel 80286 microprocessor.  In particular I am wondering if you have 
encountered compatibility problems between the 8086 and 80286 microprocessors. 
Have all your software application programs and operating systems run perfectly
the first time on the 286 when they were written for the 086?  If not, why not?
I am interested in detail.  Was the problem easy or hard to fix?  Please mail 
back and I will summarize or call collect at (408) 721-6400.  I appreciate 
your reply. Thanks very much.
