I just got a Mac SE/30 and have been perusing the manual that came with
it. It says in the hardware specs that as denser memory becomes
available the SE/30 will be capable of supporting 128MB of RAM. However,
I've heard that the virtual memory limit of 15MB also applies to "real"
memory.

Is this so?

If so then why would Apple make the SE/30 capable of supporting 128MB?
Is this a software or a hardware limitation? Would the extra memory only
be useful i terms of a RAM disk? 

Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this issue.
