[comp.sys.atari.st] How Much Free RAM?

cbz@mhuxu.UUCP (02/25/87)

Can someone tell me how much of a 520STs RAM is actually allocated for the
user?  I have a Free RAM checker Desk Accessory that tells me its something
like 377k.  Is that correct?

  Depends on a number of things, like how many desk acc's you load and whether
or not you've got TOS in ROM.  377K sounds to me like you're loading the 
control panel and set printer accs as well as the free ram acc.  Is this
so?
