Hello Everyone !
I have two questions in regard to DRDOS 5.0 - (1) out of my 640 K I
get something like 509 K left over after all of the drivers, etc., below
are installed. I was wondering if perhaps I need to change something in my
config.sys or autoexec.bat to optimize that (I have 1024 K extended but if
I use MemoryMAX I still get only about 530 K and *all* of my 1024 K
extended is gone !); and (2) I really like DRDOS 5.0 but I also heard many
rave reviews of MSDOS 5.0 - should I switch back to MSDOS ? Thank you !
