I'm sure this is a very naive question, so if someone can just
point me towards the places I should look, I'd be grateful.  What
do I do with the extra 1300K of RAM in my new '386, other than
using it for a ramdisk?  Can I run programs there?  Can Paradox 3.0
use it to speed up searches?  Is it useful in general or only on
a program-by-program basis?  Thanks.
