I have two identically configured Macintosh
computer setups.  By using the about finder,
I see that one uses about 1.5meg of RAM for
the system and the other uses about 2.5meg.

Why is this so different.

I have removed all the inits, etc and reloaded
the system (and even threw the system away and
started over again).

One clue...someone had a MacII that used about
2.1meg for the system before re-intializing his
hard drive.  Then the system went to about 1.2megs?!?!

Any help would be appreciated.
