In the mean time, you could plug in an NEC V20 or V30 processor.
I think you would use the V20 to replace an 8088 and a V30 for a
8086. These are plug in compatible, cost about $12.00 - $15.00 and
have the 80x86 instructions! I have an NEC laptop (Not a 286!) which
run programs compiled by this Oberon compiler!
