Sorry for disturb, one information: for a2088xt need the 8087-1 or 8087-2? I see the photo but the number of chip is black. Thanks very much. L.
just a FYI, 8087 isn't needed for any programs except DOS version of Autocad or some programs that require math co-processor (virtually none in 80's). Otherwise it is not even used. So speed does not matter and presence of 8087 is unimportant unless you want to run Autocad and if you do, you should run it on a modern PC not a crippled bridgeboard.
XT bridgeboard is really only for 80's DOS programs and really then only for playing.
I have 2 XT bridgeboards here and have also A2286, A2386, and Goldengate 486SX but never use any of them ;-)
Thanks very much for reply, i thinked is a good idea install fpu 8087 for help 8088 with many operations (example data ethernet, or hdd data)..:-)
