The initial versions of HIMEM were written for 286 class machines and the
hardware vendors hadn't standardized on some of the details. Things got a
lot simpler as time went by.
Current versions of HIMEM include support for most of the major vendors but
sometimes you have to specify which kind of computer (the /MACHINE
parameter). In the old days hardware vendors had their own versions of HIMEM
that would only support their systems.
