  I have an XT/286 in a box and used it for many years.

  It is IBM's clone of the PC/AT with a few exceptions.

  1. It uses an XT case
  2 It is 6mhz with 0 (zero) wait states.
  3. Some AT boards will not fit into it.

  Due to the zero wait states it is faster than other 6mhz AT's that do
have wait states.
