Basically useless. The cost of a 384K expansion (in these parts, calgary) is about $126. The cost of a brand-new 10Mhz 640K ram-less motherboard is $105. In fact, the 384K expansion card is difficult to find since everyone would rather just sell you a new motherboard. -- herb@blender.UUCP "Did I tell you I'm forgetful?"
