     Maybe that's why IBM destignated it Model 30 (for being V-30 
compatible/incompatible)?  I've tried NEC V-series chips on several 
computers, and found that all of them work when the program is non-copy-
protected.  So the V-30 will run on the Model 30 when you're running 
non-copy-protected programs.
