Yes, MPW 3.2 works with virtual memory and 32-bit mode. For the moment
you need to change header file names and other small annoying names 
when you move code from Think to MPW. Check latest Developer Services
CD called "Lord of the Files" - Steve Falkenberg, DTS, published
a newsreader called NewsWatcher with source, where the source 
could be compiled in either environment.

[I have some notes stored about the needed changes between Think C
and MPW, so send me an email if you want those].
