Gee, AMD is selling the 80C287-10 for $99.00 U.S.
You can order one directly from AMD by calling a 
1-800-xxx-xxxx number. I don't have the number with me now,
but if you email me, I'll provide the number. Spread the word.

Disclaimer : I hate myself, my wife hates me, my dogs hate me,

	     In other words, I don't speak for AMD and they
	     don't speak for me. I just happen to work at AMD.
