   Speaking of chocolate sprinkles, I heard a nasty rumor that there is 286 
   bsd available somewhere, and I would like to use the old machine as more 
   than a paperweight/clock.  If someonce could point me at it, I would be 
   most appreciative.  Or if it is just a nasty rumor, let me know, so I can 
   stop chasing it.

Stop chasing.  FWIW, 286's make really nice console terminals with a
copy of PC Kermit.
