The IBM PC AT model 339 has a processing  speed  of  .013  Mflops
with  an  80287  (or 80287-8) math coprocessor installed.  Is any
one familiar with any other boards that can do better than  this,
(with  the  conditions that the board should run under MS-DOS and
be accessible by Microsoft's Fortran or C)?  In other  words  I'm
looking  for  a  board that will look like an 80287, but run even
faster much faster. Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Please
give  info about speed in Mflops, and contact telephone number or
address.
