The machine's memory was set up with 640k base memory, 512k extended, and 512k expanded. When we ran PC Lab's Benchmark test of the memory the rusult was that the 640K memory was faster than the expanded, and the expanded was faster than the extended. Does any one know why this is??? Or was benchmark wrong???? o o ______ _ _____ _ _ o o mcnc!bacchus!beretta!todd ' ' / / / ' ) / // // ' ' or wall-rt@cscosl.ncsu.edu / ______/ __/ / / / __. // // _/ (_) (_/_(_/_ (_(_/ (_/|_
