Does the Inboard plug into the CPU socket or an expansion slot?  If
it's the latter, it _might_ work in any 286 system.  If it uses the
CPU socket, then it probably doubles the CPU clock speed, and
wouldn't work if the original CPU was faster than 8 Mhz (maybe if the
386 was socketed, and you could find a faster 386 chip?)
