Re: new vDosxy -- what is minimum system for running?

["Lisa Kleinholz" <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxx> (Redacted sender "lkleinholz@xxxxxxxx" for DMARC)]

I'm looking at a small, cheap, travel computer, like this asus with 2GB memory. Will vDosxy run on it?

Most of the time I work on Mac running Xy4 in Boxer.

Thanks to all who have worked on vDosxy. It has caused me to consider a Windows machine as backup computer.

Dear Carl

I'm getting my extended and expanded memory confused.  I wonder if the
new version will support an expanded memory manager.

Best wishes
