I heard recently that the 80287 runs at a clock speed of only 5.3 MHz when
in an IBM AT and also that one can purchase a small board which fits into the
80287 socket on the AT, to drive it at 8 MHz (assuming of course one has an
80287-8). Where can one purchase such a board? Any information would be
appreciated. If you have them, please include prices.

Thanks in advance
