Hi Chuck and all,

>No more complicated than 20 bit segmented addressing on an 80286.  :-)

<pedantic note from IT teacher>
The 80286 had indeed 24 bit adressing... the 20-bit segmented addressing was
a "feature" of the older 8088/8086 -- although it remained available in
later processors for compatibility reasons.
