i have an ibm pc compat of the leading edge type, and i was wondering how
 expensive and  difficult would it be to upgrade to at least a 286, maybe more....
i have :
extended video bios
640 online ram
2 5.25 drives
hard disk....20 megs

what would be the easiest way to make this com more viable
thanks
