Well, I hate whining about legalities, but his demo compiler .ZIP
seems to include proprietary Borland things. So I'm not sure why he

You can use a ring 0 host like CWSDSTR0 or WDOSX. As for smaller size,

Not offhand, no. But Japheth dabbled a bit in it (though never
amounted to anything, last I heard). I can't find the specific link or
I'd point you to it (but I'll keep looking anyways).
