This is going-to-12Mb... in view mode; [Up]


Date: Sun 20-Sep-1989 03:25:12 From: Unknown Subject: going to 12Mb... 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!
