-
- Close; the utility required for 32-bit addressing under 6.0.x *is*
- from Connectix, but it's not Virtual; it's called Optima, and it's
- often bundled with certain third-party SIMMs.
-
- Note, however, that Optima will *not* work with MultiFinder; if you
- want 32-bit addressing under 6.0.8, you'll be able to run only one
- application at a time. This applies not only to the released versions
- of MultiFinder but also to 6.1b7 and 6.1b9; none of them will work with
- Optima.
