I have a 10 MHz XT clone with 1 meg of EMS and a hard drive.  How
will Desqview work on such a system?  I haven't gotten a clear 
answer from the people I have talked to so far.  For example
 - will Desqview work with my EMS
 - switching tasks vs multitasking
 - will running Desqview slow the system to a halt

Everything I have heard is good, but just not clear.  If you e-mail
to me I will post a summary of the replies.  Thanks in advance.
