I don't remember my 8088 machine having a Turbo button, because it only ran
at 4.77MHz, my Amstrad PC1512 had an 8086 @ 8MHz but didn't have a Turbo
button, but my Opus did have an 80286 at 12MHz which had the Turbo button.
(which was left pressed in all the time!), I don't think I ever found any
software that needed to run at 4.77MHz.
