I was referring to all memory 0 through 1M+64K-16 "High memory" is usually the memory above 1M; 640K-1M is usually called "upper memory". This is based on "dos=high" and "upper memory blocks". Maybe we should stick to numbers... In any event, the limit of _dos_ds should be 1M+64K-16 (1M+64K since we're 4K granular).
