    PC Magazine also has a _FREE_ utility called MBOOT (Multi-Boot)
    that allows the selection of 4 different CONFIG/AUTOEXEC combinations.
    It is a little challenging to install, but seems to work well once you're
    done.  It probably doesn't have the capabilities of boot.sys, but the
    price is sure right.  I use it to boot for DPMI support, Emulation of
    Expanded Memory, and support for VCPI type programs.  (Anybody else have
    problems with EMM386 and some older protected mode programs)?
