For some reason, my mailer doesn't talk to yours.  However, it's possible
this will be of interest to some others.  

I got some very useful technical information on the C&T AT/386 chipset by
calling Chips & Technologies.  It's all marked "preliminary", so presumably
it's surplus for them, but I was very pleased when they sent it to me.
(Actually, their Canadian dealer ElectroSource sent it, but C&T put me
in touch.)  If you want to try them, call 408-434-0600.
