The academic value is great, but I really want it to (1) reduce the
problem of "out of memory" and having to exit certain programs, etc
(2) being able to leave large applications running and not ever have
to exit them.  The ones I don't use will swap out; but will be ready
when I really want them.

Ok.  I'm being lazy too.  :-)
