Who has experience with the ALL CHARGECARD from ALL Computers of Toronto?

From an ad which caught my eye, this is apparently an EMS board (list price:
$299) which has additional memory management capabilities.  The ad says,
"You won't have to disable system board memory to multitask Windows or
DESQview under EMS 4.0!"  There is a diagram which shows what conventional
memory things it can move around, and shows WordPerfect, 1-2-3, etc, running
in high EMS.

Things the ad doesn't say, but I would like to know are:

	-- how well does it work with DESQview?  Windows 3.0?
	-- how much RAM is it populated with in the base version?
	-- how much RAM can it be populated with?
	-- what type RAM? (DIPs, SIPs, SIMMs)
	-- can one use it independently of DV or Win 3.0?

Responses by email would be nice -- I'll post a summary if there's interest.
