Because System 7 will be here any moment now... with virtual memory
for those with PMMU. I DO run out of memory (5 megs) sometimes, but
then, I have increased memory for the finder, ResEdit, Think C 4.0
and various other programs, together with a 1300 kB system memory
partition (Nope, no cache, no fonts)

Also, someone said that Motorola would discontinue the 68851 PMMU, but
that was false alarm (it was the 68841) People got upset, though.
