 Needed Contributions

Here are some things I've been unable to obtain for this revision that I would like to add:

- More scanned pictures of diagrams to replace the text diagrams (XT and 286 Bridgeboards)
- Any reference information on tools for programming the Bridgeboard/Janus library.
- Any results on tests for Year 2000 compliance 
  for the XT and 286 Bridgeboard (I'm guessing they won't rollover properly either, but will they
  keep the proper century after a reboot?)
- Any info/specs on the SideCar(???)
- Any info on available processor upgrades for the XT/286 Bridgeboards
- suggestion on (freeware?) hard drive installation programs (for >500MB drives) beside DiskManager
- test results to see if FPU coprocessors run properly with upgrades other than the Cyrix upgrade
- additional installation tips
