I can get an 4Hz 8087 real cheap from a friend (actually free...) who
is upgrading his system... The thing is, I have a AT&T 6300, 8MHz 8086...

So... Will a 4Hz 8087 work in an 8Mhz machine? It works... but will it
give me the right answer every time?  Some friends say...nay, I say ask
the net... I know it won't be nearly as fast as an 8Mhz 8087 but it's
better than no 8087 and the price is right...

Thanks,

Greg
