I use SoftPC all the time, with the AT option installed.  I even took a copy of
Quaterdecks QRAM memory extension driver, loaded up my SoftPC with 1meg of 'LIM'
expanded memory, used the drive to make it extended memory and QRAM also gave me
64k in high memory back automagically!

The only thing I have ever seen crash on SoftPC is Quarterdecks Manifest
program.  It works perfectly except the 'HINTS' option.  Sometimes it crashes
the MAC when you try that option.

The new EGA screen is beautiful.  All-in-all, a great piece of software.
