Hi,

I've seen mentions of HyperDisk in this group, and I know where I can get
a shareware version.  I'd like to know what it's like, from people who've
used it.  Points of interest are:

	- is it superior to SMARTDRV?
	- is it useful for general DOS applications?
	- can it let me use extended memory as expanded in DOS (not a DOS
		shell in Windows)?


I am now using a 25MHz 386 with 3MB of extended memory.  I do a lot of
Windows programming, so good performance there is critical, but DOS 
efficiency is good too.


Thanks for any help!

Phong.
