You're the one who needs the help. The title clearly states Re: iMac tray problem not iMac tray flaws.

Oh and Classic Mac OS after System > 7 will respect file extensions if you ask it to. I've already used that control panel, and set all extensions for text based documents to MS Word.

I don't see clicking > "yes" as manually increasing the memory. Clicking is a manual action. And even Linux dynamically allocates memory. It's obviously a bad sign when the Mac needs more configuration than Linux does. > Only used it a couple hours, eh? Good luck to you with that.

Are you just blowing hot air or are you willing to back that up?
