That's what the Mac world needs--especially with the SIMM shortage. If anyone could program a utility to convert a reasonable fast hard drive to a virtual memory device (at least parts of it), it would save alot of money, memory problems, and hassles with huge programs. I recall someone telling me once that the problem with the Macintosh is that all the applications load EVERYTHING in a data file into memory, and swamping the RAM. On the contrary, most other computers make do by loading each part in one at a time, when you need the data.
