Back in November, I purchased a Sperry IT, an AT clone, soon after they were
introduced.  I also bought Xenix System V, which runs fine.  But, a problem
has turned up.  When attempting to expand the IT's memory above 1 Meg, the
limit of the motherboard, Xenix goes flakey.  I've tried a number of boards,
with the processor running at 6 and 7.14 Mhz, including the JRAM-3, but
all of them exhibit the same problem.  

Rumor had it that there was a motherboard and ROM update sometime after the
first of the year.  In addition, another IT purchased at roughly the same
time doesn't exhibit the problem.  Does anyone know if an update in fact
occurred?  If so, how does one go about getting it?  Suggestions welcome.
