Category 1, Topic 31 Message 12 Tue Dec 26, 1989 D.RUFFER [Dennis] at 23:20 EST Putting the segment into the higher memory address is also more in line with how the processor and most other languages handle it. I've been doing a lot of studing on Microsoft's mixed language model and since that is how the segment is handled, I would do it that way despite anyone else's preconceived notions. The reasoning as it is explained in MASM is so that it is easier to add offsets to a FAR address. Makes sense to me.
