I would like to use a very strong word to point out this is DEADLY wrong.
For the 80286 system, if you plan to buy an Expanded Memory Board, do yourself
a favor, make sure it supports LIM 4.0.  When you ask this question to any
vendor, it means "Does this board have REGISTERS to support LIM 4.0 or not".

I am so surprised that someone still think software emulation is better than
hardware function and is the only thing you need.
