I just recieved my upgraded 512K Mac back from Mass Tech
they did a fine job, they even put in sockets for the 256K DRAMs!,
It took exactly one week from the time that I entrusted
my Mac to the post office to get accross country and get upgraded until the
time I got my Mac back. Total cost $499 + 3.22 postage.
I highly recommend this outfit. If you have a cheap source of 256K
DRAMs they will upgrade your Mac for only $150. They pay postage one way
they also give you a tool to take your Mac apart (about a 10 minute operation)
and a disk with a public domain RAM disk.

Now that I finally have my 512K Mac I want to use the extra memory as
a RAM disk for the Manx C compiler.
My problem I transfered over the editor and the C compiler to the RAM
disk and then brought up the Manx shell. However, when I inserted the Manx
Key disk the system hung. Has anybody tried using the Manx compiler with a RAM
disk? Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could use a RAM disk and
this compiler?
Thanks in advance
