I recently read in PC Magazine that the DOS version of Lotus 1-2-3 
Release 3 requires 1MB of memory (640K conventional plus 384K extended).
My machine has an 80286 with the required 1MB of memory, but the computer
copies some system ROM (I'm not sure how much) into the extended RAM and 
write protects it.  Can I use Release 3 with this computer without
adding any more memory or should I get Release 2.2 instead?  Thanks,
