I realize this is probably the wrong net.group to take this question (if anyone has a more relevant target, please educate me), but it seems closest to the situation I'm running. I have a PS/2 model 70 (16MHz 80386 + 1MB RAM + 70MB disk) and (separate location) a model 80 (params unknown, cause I haven't really looked all that hard at the machine). I have a couple of Quarterdeck utilities (?) running, namely QEMM/386 expanded memory manager, and DESQview v2.1 (which makes windows capable of "simlultaneous" virtual 8086 operation, with user-definable allocation of time slices). The main thing I'm wondering is whether anyone else is at all familiar with these products. The actual technical problem I have is one of trying to break a simulation down into separate pieces, which run in separate windows, and talk to each other (say, the event generation code may exist in a window, event handling in another, and statistical compilation in a third). My guess is that I would need to do a lot of this stuff down in assembler, but I'm not really certain it's doable, being relatively unfamiliar with assembly-level tricks of the trade. Dale.

In the preceding article, I slipped on the keys.
> "simlultaneous" virtual
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
of course, it's simultaneous.
