$After going thru all kinds of hoops and rings to even get it to run I ended
$up with 420K of base RAM after loading the token ring drivers and the
$expanded memory emulation.  Has anyone been able to get a decent amount of
$base RAM (say 512K) available after loading the various drivers and things?

   The LAN I worked on this past summer was an IBM 4mbps TR using Novell
SFT Netware 2.15.  The programs required by the network ate up about
64K; DOS also takes up a fair bit of memory, but you should still have a
good bit more than 420K left (certainly 512K shouldn't be unreasonable).

   Todd, if you write back to me I'll try to help you out ... do you have
any programs that will show you how much memory each program uses?
