I am trying to locate a 32-bit, microchannel add-on memory board (4 Meg)
for a 20 megahertz PS/2 Model 80.  The IBM boards are a bit pricey..does
anyone have anyone have any experience (either good or bad) with
other vendors' products?  In particular, I have been considering
something like an AST Advantage 2/386 with "low-cost" SIMMS from
one of the mail order places.  Is this asking for trouble?
Any review articles that I might be able to read?
