 It will be a nice test for those boards which are socketed to see the performance delta of just changing the processor and keeping everything else the same.

+By default, the case came configured with a high/low setup to show 33/16MHz:

+I'll set the display to 40MHz high, and 10MHz low, since there isn't a standard for when turbo is disabled on 386 boards. That means I need to set:
+   * Units column (//0// in high mode, //0// in low mode)
+     * 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 3F
+   * Tens column (//4// in high mode, //1// in low mode)
+     * 3B 3C 2F 2G

+The excellent [[https://github.com/dwhinham/mt32-pi/|MT32-Pi bare-metal MT32 emulator]] from Dale Whinham is a great alternative to an external Roland MT-32 MIDI module and I thought it would be fun to build it into a self-contained, drive-bay mounted addition to the 386.
