I think the first question was more if a wish. I will pass that part along to the Product Managers. As for the second question, you were on the right track, one thing that can effect the amount of shell you can perform is the available system memory and what it is doing. But more likely it is some TSR that may be effecting what AutoCAD sees as available memory. You say both of these machines are identical? System for system? Are you using an ADI on either/both? On test I conducted with a Compaq 386/20, EGA, MicroSoft Mouse, I was able to get shells of 300k even under the lowest of memory conditions. If you are not sure what is getting loaded into your system memory, stop by the IBMHW forum. There are plenty of memory mapping utilities that may help in finding the difference between the machines.
