I bought an A2000 with a bridgecard, but mine is an 8088! If I'm lucky I can load Win3.1 on it, but I'm not sure..in the meantime I do know that there is a heck of a lot of software that will run on a 286. You can download it from various sites and there are also, strangely enough, boxed new progs you can sometimes find in cut-out baskets at Staples and other computer stores. I was amazed at the stuff I have found at garage sales too.....Virus checkers, spreadsheets, word processors...games galore.....basic programming is very easy to find. Sometimes Staples has CDs with hundreds of games on them, many of which can run under DOS. Just look around...By the way, if anyone knows if you can upgrade an 8088 Bridgecard to at least a 386, let me know!
