This limit of 8 megs is not a Virtual Limit it is the limit of the current Macintosh OS. Once System Software allows for more than 8 megs then Virtual will be able to go as high as you have disk space for. As the 68020 and up can address much more memory than the Mac OS allows. -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp. Co-Sysop FreeSoft RT - GEnie.
