Yeah, I had the same problem -- out of memory -- when I tried to get PBMPLUS 
working on the PC. Only with A-LOT-OF-CHANGES did I get it to work. Unix 
systems have Virtual Memory to play with. You're going to have to implement 
that in your program to get anything done. I got it working, but the 
performance was extremely poor.

My advice: Get OS/2. I understand that it has a saner method of allocating 
memory. I think it's only about $150.00 now. I don't know if C++ works under 
it.
