Is anyone out there in net-land with a 2500 (or some expansion card with
an MMU) working on virtual memory?  The rom to ram thing sounds fun, but
the real power of an mmu is preventing those nasty "Not enough memory"
messages (or gurus :-().  I know at least one company is selling software
for Macs with mmus to do this, and Apple's Gassee is quoted on the cover
of the Jan 31 MacWeek saying "Apple will have virtual memory in 1989."

I think we should beat them with a public domain virtual memory handler
for properly equipped Amigas.  I would be working on this right away,
but have several other projects that need immediate attention.  I also
am a simple 68000 guy, whith no real knowledge of the additional features
of the 68020 or the mmu for that matter (yet).

So, once again, is there anybody out there woking on something like this?
Does anyone know of any problems one might encounter doing this?
Are supposed to access the mmu directly, or does C/A have some sort of
software interface we should use?  Am I babbling?  Where did I learn
how to spell?

BTW: The Amiga 2500 is AWSOME!
