OK, I should have said: Startup w/o MultiFinder, since then the Finder has
all of the memory to play with :-) (This is easily achieved through starting
up and depressing the command-key after the INITS have loaded. Did you know
that if you use "normal" finder, if you quit an application and depress
option-command, you'll rebuild the desktop. Quite natural, when you think
about it :-)

Happy Hacking
