They're not "useful" to me.              BTW, what are your requirements again? From memory you       liked DOS (16-bit even). Not even a DOS extender - you       somehow manage to constrain yourself to 640k.              Is there a reason to arbitrarily use 640k instead of e.g. 2 MB?              And is there a reason to be attracted to 16-bit instead of 32-bit?              It's amusing the number of people who tell me that 32-bit is dead       when I still deal with people who won't move from 16-bit.              And that C90 is dead (replaced by C23) when I'm still dealing with       people who refuse to move from assembler.              BFN.
