Jennings Computing Center Lines: 18 In about a month, I'll be switching from an IBM PC to a Mac IIx. My question is this: In the PC world, I know of at least one program that lets you use a hard disk for virtual memory. I'm curious about how Macs handle virtual memory. Does the OS handle that already, or is there similar program for Macs?? I know Apple does things differently (namely the PMMU), but I have no idea how things are handled. I'd appreciate any info on this subject. If this question has an obvious answer I'll discover when I plug in my IIx, then I'd appreciate a net mail response anyway. Victor ------ Victor D.
