In WIN95 they are no more use of far pointers.(in France)
In djgpp they are still used.
Both of then use all the ram all the ram of your computer if necessary.

As a conclusion i would say use microsoft(very funny,isn't it?) 

What are far pointers,when are they usefull.If you try to work
in other memory block then the one you're working in is that what far
pointers are usefull for?
