I agree with most of what Larry said. The 2000 is an almost unique version of this idea in that you can use both worlds ... it sounds like an interesting combination ... but I'll make my final decision about the bridge card when/if the 286 version comes out. Another version of this idea which worked out is the Definicon series for IBM PC-Clones. Depending on exactly which one you get you get a 68020 or NSC 32xxx board with memory. There's an OS of sorts which runs on the board. I don't really know much about 'em since I've never used one ... but they've been in business for a couple of years so must've established some sort of niche. -- <---- David Herron -- The E-Mail guy <---- or: {rutgers,uunet,cbosgd}!ukma!david, david@UKMA.BITNET <---- <---- Winter health warning: Remember, don't eat the yellow snow!
