Absolutely!!  Now, if you don't ever need to exceed your 56 MB RAM, then
just set RAM Doubler to the 1x mode.  This essentially tricks apps into
thinking that VM is on, so they load more efficiently and more quickly.
But, you avoid even the 1-2% overhead that RAM Doubler exacts (not that 1-2%
is noticeable).  Also, Speed Doubler is of increasing help the older your
machine and OS are, so it's a good idea in your case.
