I got some very useful technical information on the C&T AT/386 chipset by calling Chips & Technologies. It's all marked "preliminary", so presumably it's surplus for them, but I was very pleased when they sent it to me. (Actually, their Canadian dealer ElectroSource sent it, but C&T put me in touch.) If you want to try them, call 408-434-0600. Duncan Murdoch
