Subj: 80286 PROCESSOR INPLANT TO MODEL-T

     At the end of an article by Peter Ross called A Model 100 on A Desktop/
Telecommuter;in the October 1991 issue of Portble 100 I read the following:   
Recently he (Peter Ross) has added a megabyte of RAM and upgraded his "Model
100 environment" to an 80286 processor that runs a 12MHz.
     I'm wondering if anyone knows how this would change the Model 100 aside  
from making it run faster?  Would the BASIC interpeter stay the same?  Could it
be done on a Model 102?  How much would it cost to insert such a processor?
