     *Sigh*.  I don't see programs that will run on a 16K Apple II anymore.
Nor any programs that will be happy with 64K on a PC.  In fact, you can't
even do anything if you run DOS 3.20 on a 64K PC.  And OS/2 will barely
fit on a 640K PC.  Do you really expect any of them to work?  Not I.  Just
a sign of progress, I guess...
