[comp.sys.ibm.pc] 4 Gigabytes in real-Mode DOS

dash@legs.legs (Darrell Shively) (11/14/89)

Has anyone read the article in _Programmer's Journal_, volume 7.6, November
'89 entitled "Four Gigbytes In Real Mode" ?  It offers a way to access
enormous amounts of RAM (all 4 gig of physical address, in fact) while still
in DOS style real mode.  Does anyone (including you Microsoft guys) have any
plans to use this ?  Any plans for generating a standard regarding it's use ?
Any comments would be welcome.	(I am *not* the author, by the way...)
