I have been using QEMM and DESQview on a Compaq 386 for several months.  We
are developing a turnkey system and the client didn't want to spring for the
necessary RAM for OS/2.

I think QEMM is great.  The only real gotchas are that you have to be a
fairly dedicated hardware-head to set up the system properly.  Much tweaking
can be done by loading some drivers and TSRs into high memory (though not
all will like it up there -- gotcha) but the problem is that most of the
high memory area is largely undocumented, and each PC vendor has "special"
things living up there.
