I have been seeing numbers like 655k free conventional memory with people 
with DOS 3.3, QEMM, and a pile of TSRs.

*HOW* is this done...?  Is it standard, and are there any possible side 
effects from the way (however it's done) the conventional memory is increased?

(ie, this is not an invitation to write and blather about how much memory you
really have...)

With DOS 5.00, you can get up to 625k free or so, but it doesn't expand the
640k barrier....

Any ideas...?
