- Already mailed to him directly. Somebody else (was it you?) suggested
- it was an 80286. My memory is dim on the subject, but the I do remember
- working on a 986 in late 83 early 84 when they were brand new - I seem to
- remember this being the, albeit shortlived, age of the '186. It is
- entirely possible that Altos turned around and changed it to an 80286, but
- Altos has a habit of upgrading a lot of things when they go to a new chip
- and coming out with a totally new box for it.
