*I* can beat the Intel price . . .

For those of you that can't handle holes in your Visa card, you can
always get my GCC/G++ 32-bit compiler for NO CHARGE.  You can wrap the
extender in the executable, handle up to 128M physical/128M paging,
and the sources come with it (take *that*, Intel!).  You can avoid
royalties if you choose to follow the GNU GPL conditions, or opt for
the very minimal royalty schedule.

Supports himem.sys, but no vcpi or dpmi (yet).
