BUT, I can buy a Mother board replacement for cheaper than a All Charge
Card, especially when the CPU adapter costs $100 over and above the
price of the card...

And you get true 32 memory transfers and most of the replacement boards
support 4 or 8MB on the board it self and upto 16Mb using a 0 wait state
32 bit slot....

Plus the clock rate runs a lot better... the All Charge Card will not work
at 20Mhz (Maxes out at 16)...

It only costs you 450-550 for a 20Mhz 80386 board, or 700-800
for a 25, and if you want a cache with that then add 4-600 more...

Don't kid yourself get a REAL 386 and you won't have as many headaches
