The technical report is fine for hackers, but please try to answer this more
elementary question:  Like many others, I have purchased a 1 mb system (NEC 
286), yet it is not clear that the extra 360 can be used for anything. Modal
response is yes/no(!) DesQ and other software manuals speak about use of 
extended memory over 1 mb, but not between 640 and 1 mb. Is there any way, 
for any kinds of software, of getting any use out of this memory?
