    The Intel/Zymos chipset for 386SX's allows full use of the memory
from 640K to 1M.  It supports shadow memory, but I turn that off and
let QEMM handle it because I can more precisely control the areas that
are shadowed that way.  I have 2M memory installed, with 640K conventional
and 1408K extended.  The chipset wastes nothing.
