It's not a real multitask. It's a cooperatly multitask. In this mode you have
a Windows 3.x platform running well with 4M, if you don't use last Micro$oft
memory eater products. Any way, new products will need more memory to run,
due to new features AND because it semms that as people get more and more 
memories on their computers programmers don't bother on code size.
