NR> Org. : FidoNet node 1:140/43 - U of S Computing Se, Saskatoon Sask NR> NR> Hi, NR> NR> I was wondering if it is worth my money to purchase the QEMM NR> memory manager for DOS when running MS-Windows 3.0 or 3.1? It provides much more functionality than the HIMEM/EMM386 combo. Quarterdeck claims that QEMM is much faster too ! For example, QEMM includes optimize. This gem of a utility optimizes your high memory space by loading your device drivers and TSRs contiguously thereby saving memory. Also, QEMM also provides STEALTH RAM, increasing your himem to a claimed 200+ K. However, it you don't mind, IF YOU HAVE THE NECESSARY HARDWARE (8Mb RAM and a 60Mb harddisk), the real solution to your problem is OS/2 2.0 which manages memory much more effeciently than QEMM and cost only $49 with the Windows Upgrade deal while QEMM cost about $69. ** Disclaimer ** Please guys, I am only offering what I deem as a viable solution, NOT touting OS2 2.0. Good Health. Changhao
