And THAT'S computing >101.... The problem I had with your statements was that you said that you want Apple to lose classic, that is get rid of all OS 9 code including the possibility to run Emailer, as that in your opinion can cause instability. But Classic, the trueblu environment, which the OS 9 system runs within, can not cause instability if it's not running. Fact is that it doesn't run by default and if it does run it can be turned off.
So, fact is, that if you want to get rid of classic causing instability, you can do that easily without enforcing this regimen upon the rest of the Mac community. So the basis of your conclusions was erroneous and you need to review your results and start anew. Also, I run classic with 128 MB RAM on OS X 10.2.5, it uses 14 (!) and cause no instability whatsoever. I'm also surprised at times how fast it can be even with this little RAM. But this is my experience of course. Might I mention to you that OS X have an excellent implementation of Virtual Memory, that actually take away some of your 101 problems? Think about it for a while. That said, I always recommend 512 MB for OS X users. It's cheap so why have less? Yes, that was a contradiction. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
