The software project that I'm currently working on needs to run on 286 machines,
but I would like to use a DOS extender because my program is extremely cramped
in 640K.  I would appreciate any helpful hints, suggestions or opinions from
anyone using a 286 DOS extender.  Important questions I have are the following:
	1) How much does it cost?
	2) Is there are runtime royalty?
	3) Will it work with Microsoft C (either 6.0 or 7.0)?
	4) Will it work with CodeView?
	5) Does it support automatic paging or swapping to disk?
Thanks for you time!
