I have a Boca Research at plus board. There is one omission in BR's ad.
The board is not compatible with desqview's xdv.com though it does work with dv.com.

On my at clone , the ems 4.0 manager sets up a 96k page frame, and it works with windows 2.1 better than a everex ram 3000 deluxe which is a ems 3.2 board with  a 4.0 driver.

I was very disappointed that BR's representative said they could not fix the problem with xdv. But for what it's capable of (extended, ems4.0 hardware), it is still very price competitive for less than $150. 

The board comes with a basic set of ems 4.0 driver, ramdisk (survives warm boot), spooler, diagnostic and installation software.
