Regarding how IBM compatible Vectras - I have found two programs which
have ever given me problems.  One is a (not recent) version (no, I
don't  remember which one) of Desqview - which I could not get to do
anything other than freeze, despite two days of work and several calls
to their tech support.
 The other was the QEMM enhanced memory manager, which seemed to have
trouble with the 4K enhanced BIOS immediately below the 1Meg mark.
(Yes - Vectras give you 636K, not 640K.)
