PCx86 originally simulated the 4.77Mhz 8088-based IBM PC and has steadily evolved to support more classic x86 machines,
including the IBM PC XT, the 80286-based IBM PC AT, and the 80386-based COMPAQ DeskPro 386. PCx86 fully supports
the original machine ROMs, video cards, etc, and all machines run at their original speeds.
