There is a program called "TopDown" available from Eideco Resources
(written by John Eidsvoog) which allocates all the memory at the beginning,
causing all the staying programs to load at the bottom, and will speed things
up appreciably.  It is only $20, but solves the slowness of the Mega 4
loading, and also some minor compatibility problems with some programs
that expect to be loaded near the top.  Eidco Resources/POBox 4336/N Hollywood
CA 91807.  It does some other nice things to work around problems (like rez
changes).  I have no affiliation with Eidco except as a satisfied customer.
