IMHO CWSDPMI blows any other DPMI server off the water.  It is the only
one I know about that can let you run protected-mode programs on a system
that has only 64KB (that's no mistake: 64K, not 640K) of conventional
memory and NO extended memory at all; it only takes 50KB for itself (any
other memory manager won't settle for less than 500K); it implements DPMI
0.9 at least as well or better than any other DPMI host; it implements
some DPMI 1.0 extensions (only one of the other hosts can do this; Win95
can't); and if you have some problem or bug, you can have the solution
much faster than with the other software.  To say nothing about the
price...
