Hello!
	Upon startup of my Compuadd 286/12 computer, it first displays the 
message from my ATI VGAWonder's BIOS, and then the message from my AWARD BIOS.
Directly after the Award message, the number 3588 appears.  Does anyone know
what this number signifies?  The system doesn't seem to be broken in any way,
and I've been holding to the addage, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" 
However, I've been getting curiouser and curiouser about it...  

	If anyone has the phone number to Award, that would be appreciated, too...

	If you reply, use the rex address, mail doesn't seem to like my casemo
address...

	Thanks in advance...
