I know PC-DOS 3.1 uses 1K and MS-DOS 2.11 uses 8K but have yet to hear anything about 3.3. Also wonder if there is any improvements over 3.1 that would make it worth getting. I would like to hear from anybody who has tried the 286 boards for a P.C. clone. How much preformance gain did you receive and can you multitask with them ? I'm presently running an 8088-2 and would like to know if they offer a noticable improvment. Thanks in Advance, Jim E-mail if you think the net is not interested please.
