   I think I remember you made a comment saying that   
   you didn't like the fact that PDOS/86 managed memory   
   inefficiently (which is what I told you).   
      
   That problem has been solved by switching to huge   
   memory model.   
      
   However, even though it is now efficient, it doesn't   
   buy much, because there isn't much memory   
   available in the lower 640k to manage after PDOS   
   has been loaded.   
      
   And no, I'm not willing to change it to be like MSDOS etc.   
      
   I just wanted to make sure you "got the memo". :-)
