That depends on your audience. xms-swap for 8088 works everywhere but has
too many features for an 8088 (they would be better off with the non-xms-
swap version as that saves a bit off space).

If you however want *one* binary that has the most features *and* works
everywhere then you want that xms-swap 8088 command.com.
