I would like any help which could be provided on increasing the  speed  of  an
IBM  PC/XT compatible. It currently has an 8088 and I would like to obtain any
information on increasing the speed. Is it possible to replace the  8088  with
an 8088-2? Do any other options require changes?  Does anyone have any experi-
ence with the 8086 or the V20 (V30?) which they would be willing to  email  to
me or post? Thanks for the help and sorry for such a simple request.
