[I don't believe in the li

I would like to know the limits of PC-DOS 3.1, eg.
1) How large a file will DOS support
2) How large a Disk Drive will Dos support...

If anyone has any interesting fact along these lines I would love to hear
them. If you don't think it's worthy of the net, personal e-mail is fine.
I will post a summary if this gets really interesting.
