The Lotus-Intel-Microsoft Expanded Memory Specification 4.0 has been
available for quite a while now.  Several major software vendors have
released software compatible with this new specification, e.g. DESQview,
Microsoft Windows 2.0.  As far as I know, only two vendors supply memory
boards that conform to this new specification: the new Intel board and
the AST board.  Both of these boards are very expensive, especially
the AST board which with a minimal amount of memory costs over $400.
Are there any reasonably priced memory boards that conform to EMS 4.0?
