Does this mean that OS9 on my 3400 would give me more RAM in my finder than in OS8.6. I keep getting freezes after using my computer for several minutes and switching applications frequently. I keep checking my "About this Computer" to see how much RAM is used and I never come close to using my 144 mb. I have upgraded all application RAM, except the finder which I do not know how to allocate more RAM. I have found that by turning on the RAM Disk, I get a little larger system RAM readings. Even if the speed drops a little, would I have more system RAM to use with OS9.x? A few less freezes? Dan in AZ -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
