I too would use only extended memory. Part of the problem is that 
expanded memory needs some "map" space, usually 64K. This space
is taken out of the top 300K bytes of the first meg of memory.
Since I load all my TSRs, drives, buffers, etc. up there, with
the 64K for expanded memory pages up there, I loose big.

My two cents.

Humbly, Chuck Wegrzyn
