Now, I'm confused.

If you run Win3 in 386 Enhanced Mode, each application is given as much
room as needed (or more if you specify it in the .PIF file) in its own
virtual machine.  Where is the advantage, then, of loadhi anything?

As asked before, what do you get that you wouldn't get running with just
himem.sys and win /3 ?????  (or adding emm386.sys, for that matter, if
you plan to run something outside of Windows?)
