Don't know if anyone else noticed this, but under OS/2 2.1 beta, the OS/2
applets seem to have an odd way of reporting free memory or free disk space.
Try opening the About... box of any WINOS2 applet, on my system, with 4Mb
DPMI limit, the dialog box says I have 4 Kb free (obviously, there are
three 0's missing there...)  The same thing happens in the File Manager,
which says my Hard Disk has 35Kb free, when it actually has a litlle over
35,000Kb (35 Mb) free.  Am I the only one with this problem?

Oh well, I can live with it, but it is annoying nonetheless...
