     I have been informed by someone that the IBM 32 bit machine does not
  use a 80386.  But I was assured by the person I talked to from IBM that 
  the computer will run PC software.  All I can guess is that maybe it 
  uses a 68020 running an emulation program (probably a good deal faster     
  than an PC or XT).  What's going on?
