Hi,
	I recently took delivery of a Mac-II and have been toying with
    the idea of bringing an MS-DOS environment up on it. I believe there
    are both software and hardware solutions available, however the only
    software solution that I have been able to find is an IBM-XT emulation.
    As the packages that I hope to run require a minimum of an AT compatible
    I've been looking into the Mac286 board from AST Research INC.

    What I hope you people can help me with is this. Do any of you have 
    experience with the Mac286 or a similar hardware solution, if so could
    you let me know what you think of the product. If anyone knows of a 
    software AT emulation could they forward the product name and their
    impressions of it to me.

    Thanks,


		Joe
