    ³ Things I don't like - I would have liked to see a serial port included, but at
    ³ least it's possible to plug into the ISA bus so a dongle can be added. (I got
    ³ the version 2 Book8088 with serial port built in and that's handy for BBSing ³ of course.)

    That was going to be my first question, had you not answered it in the next paragraph. ;)

    ³ >:(. alot of rare fast 286 boards are faulty and need work because of bad
    ³ soldering..

    If you have 286 boards that will accept 16mb, that is pretty impressive. I
    can remember 386 boards that would max out at 8mb.
