By the way, I experimented with using LOADFIX in DRDOS 7.03 to load and
run NETTAMER.EXE. It loaded and ran, all right, but there was less
conventional memory available as reported by Net-Tamer (not a full 64K
less, but about 46000 bytes). Since many people cry about not having
enough conventional memory available, it would seem that using LOADFIX
is not a good idea _unless_ you use it to solve the particular problem
that is mentioned in help for LOADFIX: A program won't load and/or you
get a "Packed file corrupt" message.
