   I have a Turbo C callable Assembly function which will determine
the CPU Type. It's just a slight modification of the code that was
posted here not to long ago in that it uses a 386 protected mode
instruction to determine whether or not the 386 is running in virtual
8086 mode or not. If anyone's interested in it let me know and I'll
gladly e-mail, or if there's enough interest, post the Turbo Assembly
code.
