The nice thing about Dr-DOS as compared to MS-DOS or PC-DOS is it has
much better memory management. With all my tsrs (excepting pcmcica and
fat32 drivers) I have 640 k free. With the others loaded I have 540
(I'm still not sure I'm loading the pcmcia drivers right yet though)
Plus it has multitasking .
