I finally dumped the [COMPAQ DeskPro 386/16 ROMs](/devices/pc/rom/compaq/deskpro386/) from the motherboard I bought
on ebay last year, so I'm ready to begin adding 80386 support to PCjs.

I'd also like to locate a copy of the "COMPAQ DeskPro 386 Technical Reference Guide, Volumes 1 and 2". It's not hard
to find COMPAQ Maintenance and Service guides online, but their Technical Reference guides are much rarer, perhaps because
they were expensive ($149) and not many were sold. Anyway, I'm hoping to either borrow or buy a copy, and then scan and
post it.
A [COMPAQ DeskPro 386](/devices/pc/machine/compaq/deskpro386/ega/2048kb/debugger/) test configuration is displayed below.

The configuration doesn't run, and the debugger can't disassemble 80386-specific code yet, but this is what I will be
using to test and debug my changes over the next few months.
