It took me a while to figure out the intersect ramdisk.  The problem
is pretty simple.  

I am one of the few (I think) that has a monochrome monitor.  I
couldn't figure out how to size the ramdisk, so the silly thing would
keep crashing.  I was just fooling around, and I noticed that you
change the size by pushing on little colored rectangles above and
below the numbers.  On the monochrome monitor, the colored squares are
BLACK, like the background!  I'm sure you color monitor guys are
having a little laugh right now.

So, I beseech (implore?) you: please be careful when you are putting
colors on top of each other, and think about us monochrome guys (both
of us).  I haven't seen anyone mention this before.

By the way, Mr. Franco wouldn't tell me any more about the ramdisk
when I asked.  It gets tough to answer piles of mail, its hard to find
out little quirks of programs without asking SOMEONE.

"serious" programmers......)
