It bothers me a lot. I tried using FullWrite on a 1Mb SE and I had
many "low memory" warnings and errors, and it ran very, very, very slow.
Too slow. Granted, I had a few INITs, but I *need* those INITs (I couldn't
live without Suitcase!). As it is now, I find I can't recommend FullWrite
to anyone who has only 1Mb of memory. And with the way memory availability
is these days, my guess is that FullWrite sales will not be up to
expectations. The program *isn't* perfect either. I find there are
several weak areas in its design (although I still don't have my official
release version yet--am I going to have to call Ashton-Tate?).
