   My machine is a ALR 386 33mhz with 5 meg of ram.  I am running
DOS 5 and use Lotus 3.1+ (WYSIWYG version).  My config.sys contains 
the lines:
	device=c:\dos\himem.sys
	device=c:\dos\emm386.exe 4096 ram
	dos=high,umb
	...
   I performed a /WS in Lotus and it says that I have somewheres about 
4 meg free (without any files loaded, I have 96% of resources free; with
a small worksheet, it drops to 95%).
