Why you don't want a vintage 286 PC -- but I like mine anyway

I really enjoy using my 1990 NCR PC286, but I go over the reasons why an 80286 may not be the ideal vintage PC for you, especially for DOS gaming. (Or if you're weird enough to try OS/2.)
Games like Lotus III and Flight Simulator 4.0 actually run surprisingly well on this 286, mostly due to the strength of its onboard Western Digital/Paradise graphics chip, but other 286 systems with plain VGA, like IBM PS/2s, would not do nearly as well. And a 386 opens the door to a whole range of games and programs which simply won't run at all on a 286.
Many thanks to LGR, RetroSpector78, The 8-Bit Guy, and mbbrutman, short clips of whose videos I have used to illustrate some of the points I make.
