Hello--

Just wondering if anyone out there had tried the follwoing programs out and
could review them or even tell me info on how to get one:

	o HDMem
	o GigaMem

Both are programs that allow any user with AmigaDOS 2.0+ and an MMU to use 
virtual memory on the Amiga.  I know that GigaMem is $110 at a store around
here; HDMem is on Fred Fish 740 in a demo version; have no other details on
it.  Do they work?  How easy are they to install?  What features/bugs are
on them?  Which if either do you recommend?  What is street/retail price of
real HDMem?

Please e-mail directly.  Thank you for your responses.
