We are in the process of evaluating QuarterDeck's QEMM for the '386.
It allegedly allows you to "borrow" 128k of the extended memory
(Intel's 2Meg MEM020 board, for example) and us it to fill in the
128k that is missing (I said "MISSING," Intel!*) from the
motherboard.

I'll let you know what happens with QEMM.

* actually, the motherboard is "missing" 512k RAM... (by which
  I state my desire for a 1Meg motherboard) :-)
