	LIM 4.0 came from EEMS (by AST).  I believe that EEMS is still a
superset of LIM 4.0 (i.e. It has some functions that LIM 4.0 does not.),
but I am not sure on that point.  I do know that if you have something that
will work on a LIM 4.0 board, it will work on the AST board too.  I have
an AST Premium/286, so all of my memory is basically on a RAMPAGE board.  I
have used this memory (set for expanded) with many applications (not
Sidekick +) with absolutely no problems.  I mostly use it with Desqview (if
you don't have it, buy it).  I would say that the Rampage board is a much
better deal.  Even if you don't get Desqview, you still get a very high
quality board, as opposed to one whose quality is questionable.  Of course,
I may be biased since I own an AST computer, but doesn't that say something
for the company in itself?
