Re: Clearing out unused extra memory after closing IE 4.01 and/or OE4.01
Jim Lee Jr. wrote: Folks, I notice that approximately 5MB or so of RAM does not clear out after I use IE 4.01 and/or OE 4.01. My Performa 550 has 36MB RAM, and should have about 28MB to 31MB RAM free, depending on how much MacOS 7.5.5 uses at a given time. 32 bit addressing is on, virtual memory and the RAM disk are off, and the disk cache is 1MB. How can I clear out the extra unused RAM every time I close IE4 and OE4? Any help is appreciated. Stop using shoddily written Microsloth programs??

You made the choice on your own to be insulted. Bullshit. Heres the real deal Steve. Let this put this OT stuff to rest ok? With war looming, Atheists and believers of alternate faiths are sucking on the candlelight vigils, prayer circles and yet another rendition of God Bless America and trying to keep our mouths closed as people blame other religions (Islam) for these attacks. In trying times like these, people always look for calm in their religious symbols, be it God, Allah, Buddha or Joe Montana. I dont blame people for the comfort faith brings them. It's the exclusion of all things secular that pisses me off, especially when it seems many flag-wavers and head-bowers now are equating patriotism with piety. That just isnt the case. More than 15% of our society (and this list) are Atheists. Similar to the amount of people that use Macs versus PCs. If a PC user was ranting over and over about their operating system it would piss you off. I guarantee that. Think about the way you feel when some PC geek is telling you how great their new AMD Athlon processor is. Ok. Thats how I feel. Thats why the term heathen offended me. All the heartfelt God Bless America renditions, all the scripture read at vigils makes us that are non religious feel alienated. Where are we to grieve? Just when it seems like a group of people is gathering together to grieve for this horrible situation OUT COME THE BIBLES. And every time a Jerry Falwell type suggests the faithless had a hand in the tragedy, I feel that my patriotism is under attack. If prayer works for people, great, do it, but don't exclude us atheists in the grand scheme. We're American and just as patriotic as anyone.

The machine on the photo definitely isn't one. There is no power button.

Horrid, horrid machines. We have several sitting in the bunker here (the old computer graveyard) and no one liked them when they were new, much less now. They do break down nicely, though, like in trash compactors and steam presses. Good stress relievers. As much as I hate to make a statement derogatory to the mac...I concur. Kill it. Destroy it. Throw it off of a building. I'll send you a 7100 (cheap) if you need another Mac. -- Kyle H. Hansen Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning? --George W.

Re: Far-fetched idea
Sam Burrish wrote: In my never ending attempts to put good vintage Macs to use, I have devised another plan and would like some input. I finally got a new cabinet, to house a few of my servers which didn't have that luxury. I would like to test its efficiency and the temps of the Macs inside. I know I could go out and buy a few 99¢ thermometers, but that is too easy and defeating my purpose. Are there any heat sensitive probes and software that are for the Mac? I want to rig up something like they do in science classes in schools with the TI graphing calculators and the little probes that plug in to them. Then I can get an accurate digital reading and maybe print out a chart or graph or something. I'm just interested to know if anyone has seen/heard of something like this for the Mac before. Many thanks, Sam Most of that stuff is for PC's. Why not get a Thermo-couple and a meter. We do it all the time at the comcrete lab. We shop at fisher-sceintific. -- Kyle H.
