Motherboard

While I haven't seen an actual Kaypro 386 machine, I have the User Guide for one. I saw on The Retro Web a reference to the Intel 301 motherboard also as the "KayPro/NLS 386 E". After close investigation of the jumper settings and slot descriptions referred to in the user guide and Profiles article above to the motherboard below it does appear to be the same board.
