Even Compaq got in with Deskpro i series, two models used either motherboard (both same) one 486 with 395 cache controller, 386 and 387 sockets unsoldered, and other you can choose either 386 or 486 via switches and few jumpers in etiher sockets.
I have purchased such this motherboard with 386 processor installed with 395 cache controller and 387 socket, I can switch to 486 mode by exchanging and plug 486 in other socket. My goal is to convert a Deskpro 4/33i into 3/33i.
