I don't think its impossible, but its impossible for me to offer tech-support
for such a scenario. You would be on your own and I am not liable for any
problems, lost mail, system crash, dogs and cats living together, mass
hysteria for attempting any of this.

The problem here is that it could take some tap-dancing to make things work.

D'Bridge uses every trick in the book to even run on MS-DOS; and the memory
usage is the concern here - It will depend on how much is left in the base
640k after the network stack is used. When D'Bridge swaps out to call BinkD,
there is also a resident TSR which remains when the shell-code runs.
