A great concept as far as I'm concerned but, as
always, way ahead of its
time.
Yes, but he should have figured that performance would dive (to new
depths) when the user ran out of RAM and the operating system had to swap
stuff to disk. MOs have always been painfully slow - probably a magnitude
or more slower than the hard disks of the time. At the time, the NeXT
machines had quite a bit of memory, but running even just a few big
applications would fill it up.
Easy solution: place a small local hard disk in the box for system use
only.
No. Actually, she's SO stupid, she won't sell
it unless she gets $10,000
for it. And I'm not joking. I've dealt with this lady before.
Then she can not be helped.
