Please discuss the advantages and bugs you have found for your system. Currently I am interested in using MICROSHERE's Ramdisk with a Kaypro 4-84. Is the cost of the ramdisk worthy of the increased speed in program execution? Does the ramdisk make working with very large dBase II files faster? What are typical time savings (relative to processor speed)? Thanks very much for your attention in this matter. All replies will be summarized and posted to this net group.
