Hmmm, I have a question.  Can you set up a RAM Disk using OS X?  If not
through Aqua, what about through Unix?

Thanks

Chris

RamBunctious 2.0 runs a fine RAM disk in OSX. Got three different macs-from a beige G3 to a dualieG4 all running OSX with SETI on a RamBunctious disk, and they all do just fine. The Pismo battery really likes driving a RAM disk in OSX rather than the hard drive...


The only thing I have seen OS9 do better than OSX is drive my networked Epson 1520 printer. But that is Epson's fault, not Apple's. GimpPrint, which I understand will be native to Panther, works well for driving the 1520, but there are some things that the OS9 Epson network driver still does better.
