Watcom compiler shipped with DOS/4GW extender and the audacious simplicity of being able to malloc one whole megabyte in one go felt like a real magic. Good times. * Not 100% if it was 1 meg, but 4gw ultimately removed the run-time allocation cap. If you had X megs, you could allocate X megs with one call. That was truly revolutionary.
