Thats one of the frustrating things about setting up a decent multi-tasking
operating system, there is no one set of rules that will work best for
everyone. If you can provide us with some info on the H/W platform you intend
to use, and the functioanlity you want it to run, then we may be able to
suggest options that wouuld give you the most "bang for the buck".

My general rules are that even if my machine only had 8MB of memory, I would
use HPFS over FAT any time! HPFS is very close to the top of my "must have"
list, its an absolute top performer in my books.

Cheers.........pk.
