Incidentally, I picked up a pair of AMD 286 16/S chips recently. A few months ago I pulled my A,T&T 6300 out of storage for a cleaning and noticed that it is actually a 6300 Plus, which is a 286 based machine. My hope is that it can be upgraded with one of the 16mhz AMD chips and an oscillator swap. The 286 chip used in these is of the type shown on this page

and has to be held in place by the heatsink which is clipped down. It is not held in place by friction. 286 chips of this type maxed out at 16mhz as far as I know, unless someone wants to correct me on that. I haven't ever seen a 20 or 25 of that design, but maybe someone else has.
