- Given DR seem to be a nicer bunch of people over MS with user
- support and almost everything else (no suprises there) -
- is there any reason they can not take the lead from MS and
- get round this damn 640k limitation. I don't need a GUI
- or the ability to do 70 character file names - I just need to
- memory to enable TCP-NFS networking etc. If DR did this then that would
- really kick Microsoft in the teeth - given MS
- are only putting out MS DOS 6 to catch up to DRDOS 6.
-
- If something doesn't happen soon -
- it looks like I may have to go through the trial of fire to get
- OS2 installed on my work PC so I can finally make proper use of
- the 20 Meg of RAM I have on this thing!!
