Well, I did the upgrade on my ST at work & tho it complains not it doesn't
seem to be there. Ok, the questions:

	1) Does the freeram.acc I pulled off of the net awhile back
	   actually know if I have > 512k?

	2) How do I use the memtest.prg I pulled off of the net? It
	   says it's running a 1M check, but gives no errors unless
	   forced by the mouse. Shouldn't it beef a little if there's
	   a problem WITHOUT moving the mouse? (This question could
	   be a little premature as I only let it run 3 or 4 minutes)

Help! I'd like to get this one flying before digging into mine. It's
kind of nice to have someone else's machine to practice on, but it
should work.

Thanks,	-Leo

BTW, I've managed to uudecode lots of stuff from the net w/out mishap.
Are you sure you're setting file type binary when transferring executables
with kermit?
