GRUMBLE GRUMBLE GRUMBLE!!!!!!!!
I just replaced MacPaint & Macdraw with The new Claris products. Guess
what. All I get out of either of them is a not enough memory to run
message. Well, not quite all, I was prompted to personalize the software
before I got the not enough memory message. The Apple versions of both
ran when all I had was 128K. The Mac is currently a 512KE with Hyperdrive 20.
If I upgrade my copies of MacWrite and MacProject, will I get more software
that I can not run???
The Hyperdrive 20 uses some of my RAM as a perminate cache. According to
my calculations, it will not die until March '89 (experiance from 2 previous
Hyperdrive 20's dieing {extended warrenty is a wonderful thing when you have
a product that dies at 1 year's use}). Around March I will remove the
Hyperdrive and trash it (no more extended warrenty). Will the Fat MacDraw,
and the fat MacPaint work on the Fat Mac - Hyperdrive? Did I waste my
money??
