Summary: RAM Disk


     While Mike is working on the main RAM, I've been thinking about
RAM disks.  Actually, more than just that, I've been thinking about
my current system configurations in general and planning for the
summer.  I currently have my ST running OSK version 1.2 and (big
drum roll please ... ) my QT-20X 68020 machine (yup, it arrived
last week and I've already started to used it), both with 20 Meg.
hard disk systems.  I'm starting to dread my CoCo3 with its slow
and now, relatively small capacity floppies (gee whiz, only 80
cylinders, single sided per drive?).  I'm not entirely happy with
hard disks.  I find the noise annoying.  I'm thinking about networking
everything to the QT and sticking the QT in a closet.  So, how about
RAM disks for the CoCo?  Has anybody used the Disto RAM disk under
Level II?  That seems like a nice idea.

Cheers! -- Jim O.
