Does anyone know the memory requirements of DOS 5.0 loaded into high
mem and running 4DOS as the shell (also in high mem)

ie: How much memory can I really get if I move all this stuff to
highmem?

Also how many of the DOS 5.0 improvements are in DOS proper and how
many are in the shell (commmand.com)?

I am on a 286 with 4Meg. (No NEAT or C&T) But I am also interested
from a 386DX 33/64K with 4M standpoint.
