The Zenith SuperSport 386sx laptop that I am using to explore Assembly
Language is thus vintage. I'm running Windows 3.1 without a mouse
simply to give me a crude task-switching environment between MASM, my
editor, linker, etc. You have to FORCE Windows 3.1 to run in 386
enhanced mode on a machine like the Zenith with only 2M of RAM. I
should probably use DesqView instead.
