        There are a variety of good expansion boards out there.  I recommend
anyone purchasing such should buy one which supports a 68881 as a memory
mapped device.  I have a Pacific Peripherals 4 meg box with 2 megs in it, and
it has functioned flawlessly.  However it does not support the 68881, much to
my disappointment.

                                                        That's my two-bytes,

                                                                        Wade.
