[] > ... have you ever thought of what you would *do* with 4 megs? - I could run a multi-tasking shell. The main advantage of that is that I will get to type in a _password_ when logging in to my _personal_computer_! (ARGHHH!!!) (Alternatively, I might spend the $250 on a used 520ST to run the long number-crunching programs on while I edit/compile on my main ST...) (Has anybody developed a method to run one ST as a 'slave' from another? The MIDI ports seem ideal for that, and ideally the slave ST would not need a disk drive nor a monitor (for text-only output).) Seriously now: 1 meg is just right for me now, but I'm _sure_ 4 megs would be useful! 4 megs of _protected_ RAM would be even better! (an external, protected, _huge_ RAMdisk with it's own power and bootable...) - Moshe Braner
