  I'm looking for information on the Ampro Little Board/186.  It is a
relatively inexpensive MS-DOS machine that claims to beat the performance
of the IBM PC by a factor of three.
  Does anyone on the net have any experiance with this machine?  I realize
that it is not an IBM clone, but how is its compatibility? Generic MS-DOS or
better?  Are Ampro products reliable?  As an aside, will most compilers / 
programming tools run on it.  What I'm looking for is an inexpensive, yet
cheap (student here), MS-DOS machine.
  Thanks in advance for any feedback.  Reply by mail and if the replies are
numerous, I'll post a summary.
                                  Thanks, Bruce
