On the front page of this week's MacWeek (10 January 1989) there is an article entitled: "Virtual memory ends RAM jam." Connectix Corporation has come out with a package containing a PMMU and an INIT for $695 that creates an 8mb swapfile on disk, far cheaper that an 8mb DRAM upgrade. The article states that there is "some" performance degradation on 1mb RAM machines but performs adequately on 2mb machines and with no noticeable degradation on 4mb machines. Sounds great!! My question is: are there any beta testers of this software out there on the net who would be willing to attest to the quality of this product?
