>Other non -PC hardware such as Rainbow went out to
896k and some of the

Two Tandy products that come to mind that could be
take up to
768k are the Model 2000 and the 1000HX. The only real benefit for
doing it on either of them was for RAM disks though. Like the PCjr,
the 1000HX used part of it's RAM for the video adapter as well. Both
shipped with thier own specific versions of DOS 2.11.
The eternal Siemens PC-D has up to 960 K continious DOS Mem (992 with
B&W Bios) ... ad 1024 K when using an inofficial Version and the
Character Grafics Adaptor (which was in fact an enhanced VT 220 on a
slot board :).
