  To run this program, you're going to have to find some mode where
you get 550K free.  Neither of these will do it.

  This suggests that perhaps with some manual tweaking, you might be
able to get to 550 with memmaker.

  My inclination is to start with a dual boot to DOS (6.22?), and
then use memamker to move into high/expanded memory anything you
can't get rid of.  I'm sure I used to be able to get to about 620k
this way.
