As I am about to obtain a 2MB RAM board for my Amiga, I have been pondering
the best way to make use of it.  Obviously, it would be ideal to simply
copy my entire two development disks to RAM: and have EVERYTHING work out of
RAM, but all that copying must take hours (from floppy) every time I'd need
to reboot.  I do have another thought that might work, though.  I will try
adding 1788 (or whatever) disk buffers to both DF1: and df0: and I would
hope that this would mean an incremental process in which the first time
I use anything, it will go to disk, and then it will be in RAM until I
have to reboot.  On the other hand, it might also be nice to boot from two
floppies, have a bunch of stuff copied to RAM:, then I could use two other
floppies (without all the stuff I need to boot up) and have lots of disk
space on line at a time.  

Anyone else out there have RAM yet?  What have you found that works?
