Yesterday I received  a catalogue from J & R, and found that
Inboard 386 PC is selling at $599.  Another 1 M daughter board
will cost $399 according to the ad.  Anyway, I have been
interested in upgrading my old Zenith and hope to get
your opinions regrading my upgrade.  Please help me.
Now the questions are:

(1) Is Inboard 386 PC compatible with my Zenith PC?  I know someone
    posted a toll-free numbef for Intel Inboard support and  wish to
    have that number so that I can call Intel to verify any myths/facts.
    If you tried Inboard on your Zenith PC, please let me know
    your luck or ....

(2) Will my Zenith + Inboard 386 turn into an AT machine?  I am
    wondering whether the additional 1 Meg is used for extended 
    or not.  I would like to run a large database and may need
    1 Meg piggy board.  The target software especially requires
    AT compatible with 1 Meg of exTended memory.

I will summarize what I will receive to the net if there are
such demands. Thank you in advance.
