Come to think of it, it wasn't an 8086 or an 8088.  It was that super-duper 
upgrade chip:  the semi-marvelous and hemi-magical V20.

Claimed increase in performance from 8088:  30%.  Real world increase: 
5-10%.  Oh well, I think it only cost about thirty bucks at the time.

V20 probably tests out as an 80188 in the CPU routine, so it should fail 
with message as well the others, for anyone hanging on the NEC wonder chips 
of history.  Same results as with a V30.
