I recently purchased a 387 co-processor, but I am having some second
thoughts about it.  Becasue, the model number is A80387-16 and it says
SX829 on it.  The place where I bought it from swears that it is a DX,
32-bit co-pro.  It works fine on my machine, but it fails to fill up the 
outer row of pins on the socket which leads me to believe that it is
a 16 bit version for an SX.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.
