My guess is that 512K is theminimum amount of memory that OS/2 will need to
do things like a load, save, or swap.  I started using OS/2 with the minimum
memory required ( $M) and quickly added another two.  From hat I can tell,
OS/2 is still reserving 512K.  

I'm planning on adding more memory when memory prices sablize.
