*  Go back to using QEMM, and use HIDOS.SYS - I used that combination,
* and went from 587K to 602K.

Even though I've run EMM386.SYS quite successfully, I'll second this
opinion for one reason:  running Windows 3.0.  Instead of using the
config.sys "choose your memory manager" trick from the manual, you can
run the same memory manager under DOS as well as Windows.  I've only
seen one small glitch, in that CACHE.EXE thinks it's not running, when
in fact it is.  Under EMM386.SYS it would give me disk cache hit
stats, and under QEMM it reports the disk cache is not running.  Other
than that, the combination of these 2 wonderful products is quite
powerful!

	A happy customer,
