                         INT 21,48 - Allocate Memory

       AH = 48h
       BX = number of memory paragraphs requested


       on return:
       AX = segment address of allocated memory block (MCB + 1para)
          = error code if CF set  (see DOS ERROR CODES)
       BX = size in paras of the largest block of memory available
            if CF set, and AX = 08 (Not Enough Mem)
       CF = 0 if successful
          = 1 if error


       - returns segment address of allocated memory block AX:0000
       - each allocation requires a 16 byte overhead for the MCB
       - returns maximum block size available if error

       - see  INT 21,49,  INT 21,4A
