There is another set of packages I know are real that work even 8086s
that are very small but this one claims more and is far smaller. I'm
not a believer.
FYI: it's only 2mb! Even the dos 6.22kit is larger and
www.newdealinc.com
stuff wants something like 5mb zipped.
Also MSwindows ME is on Win98 base which does run (slowly) on 386s.
It runs better if you apply 98lite to it and get rid of the IE5x and
some of
the other sillyness.
