   Absolutely. It's a very simple design. And I'm happy   
   with that.   
      
   If someone wants to port PDOS to a system with   
   minimal memory, which apparently includes the   
   IBM PC XT - they are free to modify it to do swapping   
   etc.   
      
   I just don't want to do that in my copy of the code.   
   Anyone who wants to run my copy of the code is   
   sort of required to provide 2 MB realistically.
