I use my SO's Intel 310AP.  They are pretty good for C programming and the
like, but for CPU-intensive stuff they suck, like any 286 would I assume.
We have an Intel iSBC 286/12 CPU board w/1MB of RAM, iSBC 040EX 4MB RAM
expansion board, 2 Intel iSBC 188(56) intelligent I/O cards, Intel 214 disk
controller, Archive 45MB streaming tape drive, and a Maxtor 140MB hard disk.
It isn't bad for a 286, especially compared to ISA-type systems.

Got an upgrade to Intel XENIX 3.5 but haven't loaded it yet.

One interesting thing I found about the Intel XENIX 3.4 Development Package
is that when loaded on a SCO XENIX 386 2.3.1 system, will produce much
smaller, optimized 8086/80186/80286 XENIX (v5, not v3 like on the Intel box)
binaries than the SCO Development package.  They also execute faster.

Has anybody ever gotten fixbb to actually fix a bad block and not screw up
some other part of the partition in the process?   I think it worked once.

Anyways, please follow-up to comp.sys.intel.ipsc310...
