BUT IT NEED NOT HAVE BEEN THAT WAY.
Which other 2nd/3rd/4th generation processor has this b****y stupid 
'protected' mode? 

Please nobody mention the 68020's memory management, that's not at all
the same thing, nothing like it!

WHEN I can get the tools I use under DOS at the price they sell for for
DOS I'll give OS2 some thought. I hope I live that long...

I keep saying I'm going to drop this thread, but....
