It would be nice to have a 4 or even 8 meg version!! That would make one nice RAMDISK!! Especially if it is battery backed up, so that you don't lose memory between bootups!! Heck, with an 8 meg Ramdisk, I could put my entire Mark Williams C compiler and really fly!!! fodder fodder fodder fodder fodder fodder fodder f f f f f f ff f f Rich Covert
