Actually, you can change the Finder's application memory size even when it IS the active Finder, although the new size doesn't take effect until the next time you restart.

(It pays to keep the Finder memory as small as possible, since every byte is one byte fewer available for applications.) -- ====== jeanne a. e. devoto ======================================== jdevoto@apple.com | You may not distribute this article under a jdevoto@well.UUCP | compilation copyright without my permission. ___________________________________________________________________ Apple Computer and I are not authorized | CI$: 72411,165 to speak for each other. | AppleLink: SQA.TEST
