 IBM PROFESSIONAL EDITOR

     Customers report this program has a maximum document size of 64K bytes,
     and it stores its data in the same 64K-byte area that
     Inboard 386/PC uses for its device drivers and ICACHE.

     Therefore, when ICACHE and the Inboard 386/PC drivers are loaded, the
     document size is limited to about 9K bytes. If you remove ICACHE,
     document size increases to about 30K bytes. (Don't remove the Inboard
     386/PC drivers.)

 IBM APL2/PC VERSION 1.0

     Customers report this program is incompatible with Inboard 386/PC.
     Floating point calculations always result in 1. The customer was told
     by IBM that this problem will be corrected in the next release of the
     APL2/PC software.

 INFORMIX-4GL

     Customers report that this program is incompatible with the Inboard
     386/PC.  It apparently uses hardware functions specific to the IBM PC
     AT that Inboard 386/PC can't support.

 LOTUS 1-2-3 RELEASE 3.0 AND ILIM386 VERSION 4.04

     Lotus release 3.0 and ILIM386.SYS version 4.04 are incompatible; you
     must use ILIM386 version 4.07.  Although ILIM386.SYS version 4.04 was
     designed to conform with software using the Virtual Control Program
     Interface (VCPI) specification, a problem with the ILIM VCPI
     implementation causes Lotus 1-2-3 Release 3 to hang with the message:
     "DOS 123 ERROR:Protected mode requires VCPI within virtual 8086".

     Inboard 386/PC needs the Piggyback Memory option for the 384K bytes of
     extended memory 1-2-3 Release 3.0 requires.

 LOTUS 1-2-3RELEASE 3.0 AND ILIM386 VERSION 4.07

     Lotus 1-2-3 Release 3.0 and ILIM386 Version 4.07
     Release 3.0 is compatible with ILIM386 version 4.07.  If Inboard 386/PC
     has no piggyback memory, you must remove the ILIM386.SYS line from the
     CONFIG.SYS file for Lotus 1-2-3 Release 3 to load.  If Inboard 386/PC
     has more than 1M byte of extended memory and you have programs other
     than 1-2-3 that need expanded memory, use the EXT=0 parameter on the
     iLIM386.SYS command line.  Otherwise, remove the parameter.  If you
     want to reserve extended memory for ICACHE, use the EXT=x parameter,
     with x set to the size of the cache.

 LOTUS 1-2-3 RELEASE 3.0 - MEMORY MANAGEMENT

     This section explains how to structure files for minimum memory use and
     how to regain memory.  This information comes from the Memory
     Management appendix in Lotus 1-2-3 Release 3.0 documentation.

     The minimum memory requirement for release 3.0 is 640K bytes
     conventional, 384K bytes extended memory.  The suggested memory amounts
     are 640K bytes conventional, 1M byte extended, and additional as
     expanded.  Make sure the extended memory hasn't been allocated to other
     programs such as disk caches.  Check CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT if
     you're unsure.  Because most DOS applications use extended, not
     expanded, memory, configure as much expanded as needed for these
     applications. When configured for both kinds of memory, the 1-2-3
     program is stored in extended and data is stored in expanded memory.
     When expanded memory is full, 1-2-3 places any additional data in
     extended.

     If you have a 386-based computer with an Expanded Memory Emulation
     Program, such as ILIM386 or QEMM386, you should convert as much
     extended memory as possible to expanded.  1-2-3 can access only the
     memory that the emulation program converts to expanded.  1-2-3 won't be
     able to use extended memory after the emulation program has loaded.
     You usually set the amount of memory to be converted with a statement
     in your CONFIG.SYS file.

     NOTE:   1-2-3 works with only those EMS Emulators that support the
     Virtual Control Program Interface (VCPI).  Among those that support
     VCPI are 386 MAX version 4.07 and later, Quarterdeck Expanded Memory
     Manager (QEMM) version 4.2 and later, and COMPAQ Expanded Memory
     Manager (CEMM).

 LOTUS 1-2-3 RELEASE 2.0

     This version of Lotus uses a nonstandard method of detecting the
     presence of a math coprocessor, and this can cause the software to
     erroneously report that you have a math coprocessor.  It can also
     produce an error when a number is inserted in a cell.  This error can
     occur in any computer, even one without Inboard 386/PC.

     If you don't think you have a math coprocessor in your computer but 1-
     2-3 indicates one is present, first verify that 8087 is present. If
     there is no math coprocessor, either upgrade to 1-2-3 Release 2.01 (or
     higher) or install an an i387 DX.

     NOTE:   This is not an Inboard 386/PC problem.  However, the Inboard
     386/PC may stress the computer just enough to expose the false
     assumption that 1-2-3 makes to determine math coprocessor presence.

 LOTUS 1-2-3 RELEASE 2.01

     Intel has tested this version of Lotus 1-2-3 with the Inboard 386/PC
     and they are compatible.
