Here are a few other things that dr dos 5.0 can do 

If I don't care to run windows in 386 enhanced mode, I can run my
system with ansi, ced, disk cache and stuff and have 620k of free memory.

I can also use clarkson packet drivers & b.y.u. ipx to run my machine
on a novell network, or use ka9q to do tcpip stuff across the internet.

I am not familiar with 4dos.
Is it also networkable, and does it run ms windows?

But this illustrates the biggest problem of ibm pc's.  
Something is wrong when you have 3 megs of ram, but you are still
happy to clear up 50k of memory, while over 2 megs sits around pretty
much unused.

Dr Dos 5.0 isn't any sort of tremendous break through, but it does
provide the memory features of qemm for less money.
