It's what's reserved by default (in MS-DOS anyway) unless you let the
computer actually use it for something (and that's what the emm386 switch
"highscan" does IIRC.
IIRC Someone posted earlier stating that if one has a NIC he/she should
reserve some of that memmory. I must say that I haven't reserved any
memmory on any of my computers that has a NIC and the network (and all
other things except Arachne <g>) has worked without any problem what-so-ever.
Quite frankly using a computer (and MS-DOS most of that time as OS) since
85 still haven't told me what that memmory (if it exist that is) is
reserved for since it never have been any problem for me using it. If
anyone knows (preferly from experience) what it's for I would be very happy
to hear what it is..
