<<shudder>>
I did Mac support in the 1990's, and you're bringing up memories of me fixing people's systems, and while I'm fixing damage *caused* by RamDoubler, they were proudly telling me how much money they saved by using RamDoubler instead of buying more memory! 🙂
Having some fun with System 7.1 on my PowerBook. SpeedDoubler for background file copies, RAMDoubler for better VM handling, date patch, Appearance control panel for updated visuals, plus Control Strip from my 7.5 install.
Specifically: both modern Windows and MacOS (and I think maybe FreeBSD but I don’t remember if Linux does) use the memory compression methods pioneered in RamDoubler to avoid swapping to disk as much. It works really well!
da es damals keine Auswahl gab, hast du ja auch keine treffen können.
Mein iPad ist auch grün und es ist schön und bekommt bald einen großen Bruder.
Mein erster Mac war ein LC2 4/40, mit #RAMDoubler 8MB Arbeitsspeicher! bei 40MB Festplatte.
Er steht noch im Keller
