No, it's not, and no, it doesn't convert extended to expanded. If you really want full LIM 4.0, you'll have to get a 386. If you just want fake EMS, there are various utilities around, including a free one that was published by PC Magazine. Warning: it's worth what it costs. It will eat up more than 64Kbytes of your 640Kb conventional memory. What exactly do you plan to do with this EMS? -- Phil Ngai, phil@amd.com {uunet,decwrl,ucbvax}!amdcad!phil If more freeways causes more freeway usage, why doesn't more transit cause more transit usage?
