UMBs should only be used if you're desperate for memory. I don't trust them.

> FILES=50

FILES=50? What a waste of RAM (unless you have an app that uses 50 file
handles)

As for buffers, FD will ignore that and fill leftover HMA with buffers. I
put mine there for completeness.

> IMO, lastdrive can be "Z"

Yes it can, but that's a waste of RAM if you don't need it.

> No need PROMPT anymore since it's FreeDOS default

You're right on that one. I just put it there for safety and historic
compatibility.

> LH CTMOUSE can squeeze some base memory

Only if you have a TSR that provides access to the UMA (like EMM386.EXE or
something)

AUTOEXEC.BAT

Ah so some people use FD and Win9x side by side. Sure enough.

Thanks for your input,

Justin
