Please send me two of these miracle chips for my PC-AT's ASAP, I've run out of time trying to get all this neat net.sources software to fit within segments on the Intel 80286 chips in my machines. Also, a compatible 287 chip would be nice. P.S.: What S/W changes are needed to correct the segment size? ... radio! -Mr. Spock
