That's pretty similar to Book8088. Although it doesn't have 8087. You could order it separatelly but it gets hot easy and draws a lot of battery so almost none is using it.

I also think the clock is smaller. I can't remember the exact values, but I'll retest and let you know.

Although, the turbo is switched off by default.

Unfortunately not testable on a real machine as it doesn't come with a floppy controller. It does come wiht an 8-bit ISA extension board, but I didn't find any cheap and available 8-bit flopy controllers online so we can try something like that.
