There currently several packages can utilize the V86 mode of 386. 
(MS/Windows, DESQView, etc.) However, I found none of them can give
a user a full 640KB (or at least 600KB) in the virtual 86 mode.

Is there any environment which may give a full 640K for DOS applications?
or this is an impossible thing? (I am not familiar with 386MAX or VMOS)
Does anyone have any experience on it?
