No, I did not.  I said the Microsoft EMM386 RAM option did not work that way, as far 
as causing the sharing of EMS and XMS memory.  I did not say Microsoft EMM386 version 
4.45 itself did not share.  MS EMM386 versions prior to 4.45, however, also do not 
share the pool.

Bottom line:  the RAM option does not work the way you apparently believe it does, 
based on Microsoft's own documentation.
