The first is that I forget where it was that I put files, if I haven't used them for a while. Does anyone know of a file finder, preferably in the form of a DA? The second problem has to do with DAs, in that I find myself with too many of them, and I end up with not enough of my 1040's 1 meg to run certain things. Now, I know I could take the sensible approach and simply reboot without all the DAs, but where's the fun in that? Therefore, I am seeking ways of increasing how much memory I have (well, actually how much the computer has, but be that as it may). I might get an upgrade for my ST, but I am also thinking about getting a STe instead, since simms are so much easier to use. I know some software will not run on the STe, but I was wondering if anyone could give me more info on this, since I would hate to get the extra memory and then find that a lot of PD software, games, don't run on it (I am assuming that those are the kind of things that might have trouble?) Also, has anyone tried hooking up PC-ditto2 (the hardware version) to an STe? Or does the software version wor Any help/info would be greatly appreciated.
