"...I tried to install QEMM to optimize my memory, it went through pretty
good, except that it started out with like 7x10E18 combinations, and I
waited for it to drop to about 7x10E15 (15 minutes)and selected the
already maximized configuration, No I do not exagerate the magnatude of
the numbers,...
...How should one optimize the memory on a 701? What have people done to
otimizr the first 640k?..."

i like ramdoubler. it's by connectix & it takes all of 20 seconds to install
in windows. it's for windows only, so it won't do your dos apps any good.
also, it doesn't use the 'stealthing' of umb's that qemm uses, but the end
result is that i'll run out of applications to open before i run out of memory
to open them in. also, it only costs about $50.
when i ran qemm, i looked at the combinations it was working on & calculated
that, if i let it run it's course, it would take 37 days to complete.
