I use a 2 meg Mac with an external 800k disk and no hard disk.  Could I
make full use of FullWrite with such a system if I used a ram disk to hold
some of the extras dohickeys?

(I think IBM sells machines with 1.44 megabyte 3.5" drives.  Will such
higher-density drives be available for Macs?  "Newer ROM upgrades", anyone?)
