I'm considering doing some hefty graphics programming on my PC, and
would like to know the various pros/cons of Windows and its memory
management.  Can I allocate very large arrays (say > 4MB)?  If so, 
is it slow?  Can I access large amounts of memory easily? (i.e. is
it a flat memory model?)  I am assuming Borland C++ is the pgming
environment of choice - let me know if there are other, better options...
