I just purchased an AST SixPack 286 card, which comes with a free copy
of Headroom.  I have heard nothing about headroom, and would appreciate
any comments. Does it have any major drawback/gotchas?

I have been considering, now that I have 3M on my system, purchasing
DESQview.  Any comments regarding Headroom vs. DESQview for swapping?
How well does DESQview work on a 286 with 3M of memory?  Does it use
expanded or extended memory, by the way?
