I do not know what pagefile.sys is called on other systems. Now that I have 
run ubunty/linux it seems to be called "swap" or "swap file".

I will assume most users are experienced enough in the field of computers 
to have seen windows in their lifetime at least once and know what a 
pagefile is and the concept behind it so I don't have to call it "swap" or 
whatever the concurrent flavor of term is for os.

Bye for now,
