Is this correct? I'd like Avant Garde's comment on this. Strange - as it is the original pcditto emulates a PC with 703k memory free - which is (my guess) different depending on how much memory is on-board on an st. I can't imagine new restrictions being imposed on the new version which weren't imposed on the original... Now what I would like to know is, I am just about to get tos 1.4 installed on my 1040st. Will that make it incompatible?
