I went back and tried the Intersect RAM Disk, and it does work - as long
as I don't  have  Mike's  Ramdisk  on disk at  boot-up.  This is not too
surprising since each is going to try some  initialization  when loaded,
but I thought I tried dropping Mike's Ramdisk before when it didn't work
with TOS in ROM.  That combination did seem to work with TOS.IMG in RAM,
though.  I now use the ramdisk from Landon Dyer at Atari, which  doesn't
suck up accessory slots and installs itself.

Something  else I  noticed  was that the first  demo in the  Abacus  GEM
Reference  fails for me if I have the BICALC.ACC Desk calculator on disk
at boot-up.  This is a pain,  because I like the  calculator.  I have to
wonder  why  accessories   fight  so  much  with  each  other  and  with
applications.
