(I'm assuming that the ROM does at least a simple memory test, so that there would be some increase in the time with larger memories.) If it's enough longer it'd solve a small problem I have with needing to turn on my hard disc somewhat before turning on the Mac... -- tom lane Internet: tgl@zog.cs.cmu.edu UUCP:!zog.cs.cmu.edu!tgl BITNET: tgl%zog.cs.cmu.edu@cmuccvma
