Some good news, if you have, or prefer QEMM over 386MAX, is that Quarterdeck
recently released a DMPI server addition for QEMM. It is free from their
forum on CI$, and requires QEMM to run. I have not personally tried it, but
it is supposed to work with MSC 7.0. So chuck your 386MAX, and use QEMM
instead!
