This is Re: running out of finder memory, particularly Re: comment
given by Paul A. Simoneau (pas1@unhd.enh.edu).

1. Choosing Finder icon in the system folder, doing cmnd-I,
   and modifying the application memory size there from 160 K
   (which I think is default) is something bigger....

   This _DOES_ work on system 6.0.x.  You don't have to boot
   the Mac off a different volume, say, a floppy disk.

2. The same procedure does _NOT_ work on system 7.0b1.
   In this case, you need to boot the system from a floppy disk
   if you want to change the finder memory size for the one
   that sits on the hard disk.   Paul's comment applies here,
   (but not with sys 6).

3. I don't know how it will be like in system 7.0b4 and the
   system 7 final.
