It's actually a known issue on how OS 9 handles memory after sleep. That is why there was so much buzz about OS X and it's ability to sleep and wake with no problems.
Actually it may not be known outside of the Apple doors, unless someone caught a clue after loosing data from crash after repeatedly putting their unit to sleep over a period of time. I used to work for Apple and it was discussed there, but not sure if a published TIL or Kbase article was released to the public showing how bad OS 9 sucks when it comes to sleep. That probably wouldn't sell too many computers. Good luck ME -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
