Appendix D of the MS DOS 2.1 manual sums up the software incompatability issues, but noone, including people at TI, seems to be able to answer the hardware questions. I believe TI basically pirated the IBM design and modified it enough to be painful, especially in the area of graphics. However, I've had my eye on a multi-function board (AST 384K SIX-PACK) but am not willing to dish out the bucks on a gamble that TI had enough fore- sightedness to leave the hardware intact. Has anyone been sucessful in using the IBM hardware in the TIPC? Is there a list of hardware products that work on both machines? I am even willing to make minor hardware changes if need be.
