Well, tonight I upgraded to 12Mb and boy does it make a world of a difference. Instead of waiting forever for my machine to finish thrashing, windows pop up like they were already there. Its nice to have breakapp run without paging too. Applications seem to start MUCH faster. I can't imagine this machine running with 4 megabytes which was rumoured to be a minimal configuration before it came out. Acch, it would have taken weeks for loginwindow to let you log in even!

I should have expected this. I have been inundated with RAM-hungry macintosh and Next owners who want memory Memory MEMORY! Well, I hate to disappoint you all but, I bought my memory from a relative who got more than she needed. Sorry to clog the group. Chris (BTW, $89 is the lowest retail price I have seen.
