My genuine IBM 8088 has the Intel plug in Turbo board. The Ad had a guy holding onto his desk with his hair going straight back. I still have it on Dos 5.1 with Word Perfect 5 and Xtree 3.0 and some more fossil programs. I still have the computer, but sold the IBM CGA screen a few years ago to a collector :-(

It was the 8088 that you could switch from 10mhz to 4.77mhz with a 'turbo' button. Also you could add more memory, but you had to solder it physically to the m/b. I first learnt basic and then assembly on that thing, I wish I still had it... On Friday 15 April 2005 09:14, Geordie wrote: > Errol is a hoarder of the worst kind. Hahahahaha.
