Hmmmm. You must know someting about os9 that I don't. I've been the
Forum Sysop on CIS's OS9 Forum for around 4 years, and am the outgoing
V.P. of the International OS9 Users Group. To my knowledge, OS9 was
never available for the 8088, 8086, 8018*, or 8028*. There have been
some rumblings about a 80386 version of OS9, but you folks at Tandy
are supposed to be keeping that a secret! ;^}

P.S. Never heard anything about TSC doing an Intel'ish port either,
but then I don't track TSC as closely.
