Although there have been a number of postings about dos-extenders 
recently, I still have a couple of questions. 

- ISN'T THERE A FAQ ABOUT THIS TOPIC SOMEWHERE ON THE NET ????

- The Phar Lap dos extender seems to come in two varieties:
  16 bit and 32 bit. can both types be used with the Borland C++ 3.1
  compiler ? 
  And with Microsoft C (6.0) ?

- What other good (commercial) dos extenders exist ? 

- What kind of porting problems can one expect when switching to a 
  dos extender ?

An answer to any of the above questions will be very much appreciated.

   Thanks for your time.
